My attraction to the Cyanotype process is the physical involvement during the printing process, allowing me to use my hands, eyes, and intuition when printing. I like the way the light, time, salts, and myself combine together to slowly deposit them on beautifully handcrafted paper. The depth of the tactile experience and the imposed slowness reveals moods and nuances in my images that I wouldn't normally see.

Jane's current passion is an alternative process called Cyanotype. Cyanotypes, also called sun prints, are one of the oldest photographic printing processes dating back to the mid 1850s.
