RE: Cyanotype on silk - one of my test prints...

Loris,

I have done only a few peices on fabric but found it a very
lovely medium to print on. I mostly print on old linen.
Have no tried silk but I did see one piece at show before christmas
and I was very tempted to buy it. So lovely.
The silk used in that case was quite thin and transparent.
The artist layered three prints over top of each other to create
a visually haunting effect.

Thanks Martin. Maybe this fabric is too paper-like (texture, flatness
and color/contrast)... I will also try with more fabric-like (more
texture, wrinkles ect., more ghostly image) pieces of silk.

Regards,
Loris.
