cyanotypes, fairies, miniatures

 

 I wrote in my journal that I could use cyanotypes to create the 'fairies' in the collages.  The quand meme series particularly.  As I understand that series, as well as la fenetre, or the looking glass subseries with 'liebling' and 'mogador' there seems to be a road theme, as there is in all my work, and I've been thinking of ways to express this, such as using light reflected from the pavement, isolating it as a shape in the crystal of the quand meme.

the fairy is something I've been developing.   the print made by natural light maybe better than I can get

 

Also, what about making the images miniature?  3x5.  It places an emphasis on clarity.  It brings the shadow and depth work to the foreground.  the 'fairies' would look more like fairies too.

Also been thinking about some infrared
