Held in Blue – Original Mixed Media Artwork

Held in Blue is an original 5 × 7 mixed-media piece created on watercolor paper using cyanotype and gold paint. A delicate botanical form emerges in deep Prussian blue, its silhouette preserved like a memory, while subtle gold accents catch the light and add warmth to the composition.
The piece speaks to preservation and presence—what lingers after something living has passed through. Soft edges, painterly texture, and luminous contrast give the work a quiet, contemplative feel, balancing fragility with resilience.
