Managed to get a new cyanotype made this week - the innards of a cooling tower. Some interesting writing painted inside, including âcheck out for men belowâ and âBobby The Lawnmowerâ the relevance of the latter - I have no idea about.

With just over a month before the Saltaire Arts Trail, Iâve found out where Iâll be displaying my cyanotypes. A clue being from this detail from one that Iâve made for the weekend - a photo montage of all the street names from within the unesco heritage site - and am truly hoping I got them all :)
Will be sharing a space with some amazing other artists (there must be a collective noun?) - all the details are on the @saltaireinspired web site.

Hereâs a fresh print that Iâll be showing at the Saltaire Arts Trail. I know this end terrace has been photographed a tonne of times but wanted to see it for myself - so cycled out to south Bradford to get one. Sadly, the Empire cinema that itâs advertising is long gone. Iâll have to research whatâs there now - who knows it could be interesting!

Have made a some âMake your own cyanotypeâ kits to hand out at the Saltaire Arts Trail. Thereâs enough for a few to be given out each day. They contain some sheets of paper that have been pre-treated with cyanotype formula; simple instructions and a little pane of acetate to make sandwiching your subject easy as :) Come find me at Stop 18 on George Street if you want one (theyâre mainly for kids but if youâre a big kid you might be lucky enough to get one). All details of everything thatâs going on at the trail and makers fair this May Bank Holiday at @saltaireinspired

Just over a couple weeks to go!! Am so chuffed to be showing my cyanotypes at this yearâs Saltaire Arts Trail. Itâs my 1st time doing something like this, and I canât believe Iâll be displaying them in a UNESCO world heritage site to boot! Iâll be sharing a space with some talented folk - including my host @al_lotment as well as @abstractcrowds and @nerissact - map and all details about it over at @saltaireinspired
The above print is one from the site of Drummond Mill near the centre of Bradford, slowly being reclaimed by nature.

One of my favourite parts of the process⊠coating freshly mixed cyanotype formula onto watercolour paper. Five sheets prepped - left to dry over night. Things become even more zen if you listen to Bill Evans at the same time.

Places that no longer exist part 5 - Stairwell at the front of Leeds railway station. The sentiment of this graffiti feels even more pertinent. I still wonder who wrote it and whether the blue ink over the red was done by the same person or another. Anyway - Peace and love.
