Fern fronds open across this cyanotype in soft, sweeping layers, each leaflet showing clean detail against deep blue tones. The background shifts through rich navy and softer shades of blue, with subtle brushwork from hand-applied chemicals that gives the surface a gentle, painterly feeling.
A few maple leaves and simple star shaped flowers drift through the top of the composition, adding light movement without taking away from the ferns. The way everything settles together creates an easy, peaceful flow, almost like the plants are floating on quiet water.
This cyanotype measures 22 x 30 inches and is created on high-quality watercolor paper. Each piece is handmade by me and completely one-of-a-kind. It comes unframed, allowing you to choose the perfect frame for your space.
My recommendation for framing this piece is a shadowbox frame in white or natural wood, with a 2- to 3-inch mat. I suggest floating the artwork, meaning it’s mounted slightly above the mat board, fully showcasing its beautiful deckled edges and adding depth.
I always recommend working with your local framer when possible. If you're short on time or prefer ordering online, a great alternative is Simply Framed, where you'll find these framing options. For more detailed framing tips, please check out my framing guide.
This cyanotype artwork ships unframed and will be carefully packaged for safe delivery. Shipping costs $20 and typically takes 10 to 15 business days. As soon as your order is placed, I'll personally email you to confirm the shipping timeline and keep you updated every step of the way.
