Fritillary #1


The climate is really too dry for ferns to grow here in Montana, but I brought some home from my sister's yard in Portland last spring. I did a series of prints before they started to wilt.

The butterfly image is from a photograph I took during a hike in the Beartooth Mountains.
This piece is 12 inches square.

  1. Cynthia, I'm loving these recent pieces you've been showing us, with the gelatin prints. They're just beautiful!

  2. Cynthia - I was wondering, do you just do the thermofax print of the bird/butterfly then go back in with paint to add the color? Or do you use multiple screens?
