Underdeveloped Cyanotypes

Made cyanotypes on Friday, but the sky was overcast and I put the prints out late afternoon.  My first real flop.  But I will do another layer of chemicals tomorrow...


These are lithographs that I layered cyanotype chemicals over (the paper on the left is a rice paper that fell apart in the water-- more on papers another time):

I tried layering cyanotype over vandyke prints.  Big mistake.  The cyanotype chemicals washed out the vandyke images and the cyanotype barely printed.  I did a quick search online-- I was supposed to make the cyanotypes first!  Another time...
