Anthotypes are made by exposing plant extracts to sunlight. These were made with turmeric, and further developed with baking soda. Digital cleanup and colour adjustment done with Krita; anthotypes degrade overtime and there's a beautiful lesson in impermanence in there, but for now I just wanted to have my pretty pictures, thankyou. So I digitised them with the idea of having them printed out later - that way, I can put 'm up when I want to.
