This image was shot on transparency film and the transparency was manipulated further using a Daylab printer and Polaroid pull apart film where the film is pulled apart before a positive can be processed. The dyes remaining on the Polaroid film were then transferred by rolling onto blotting paper. This is a very unique technique as you will never be able to reproduce the same image twice. There will always be a different amount of dye remaining on the film each time you do it making each image different from the last.

I just love this process. . . and I adore the image in this shot.
it’s a beautiful title and there is great emotion in the eyes again. I am amazed how much of that still comes through in this style. Very powerful. . . the title makes me think of how we seem to always want to trace back when we are stuck in that blue place. . . to find our way through and to understand what was before or what could have been. . .

She was lost, but you found her to create this superb and captivating image!

What’s wonderful about the technique you use is that it’s very similar to monoprinting…only one copy. This is a wonderful image! The colour blue relates to peace and communication, which you do very well! Keep at it…you have a wonderful talent which is shining through! It really is!S
peace and communication, i won’t forget that! thank you…i appreciate your comments x
She is a beauty captured with your amazing chemical process. Love the way the background is like an abstract painting. Her clothes could be a straight jacket or corset the way it is tied at the back. May the Goddess bless you! I see she has already been doing that with your amazing talent.
helen, what a wonderful thing to say…v e r y insightful, she wears a corset here….these days she may wear a straight jacket….may the Goddess bless her too. ;-) x
