#73 - with Jill Welham (Cyanotypes)
In this episode Paul chats with Jill Welham; a printmaker, photographer and artist. Jill won the prestigious ‘International Garden Photographer of the Year’ competition in 2019 with a cyanotype image. Jill creates unique prints using wet cyanotype, a modified version of the 19th century photographic printing process, introducing moisture onto the treated paper before exposure. The chemical reaction produces interesting fluid patterns and colours not normally present in a traditional cyanotype print. The resulting pieces are unique and present botanical prints in a different and painterly manner. Each piece is created with plants and flowers exposed using only the North Yorkshire sun. 01:02: Introduction & News 05:48: Interview with Jill Welham 44:40: Outro & Who's Next ---------------------------------------------------------- EXHIBITION INFO: In the show we mentioned two exhibitions: 1.
