Cyanotype Art & Yoga

  • Cyanotype

    The Cyanotype process is one of the earliest methods of photography sometimes called sun printing or “blueprint” due to the colour produced. Invented in 1842 By Sir Robert Herchel and in 1843 Anna Atkins created the first book of Cyanotypes.
    I love experimenting with the endless possibilities. I create cyanotype designs on fabrics as well as paper and enjoy developing finishes such as metallic inks, embroidery and fringing.

  • Yoga

    My yoga practice started more than 25 years ago. I became passionate about yoga, when I realised the holistic benefits of regular
    practice. I am a 500 hour trained Yoga teacher with the British Wheel of Yoga. I have been teaching yoga since
    2017 here in Langholm, Dumfries & Galloway.  I have since completed a Gentle Years Yoga
    training in 2021 and Yin Yoga Teacher training in 2024.

    I like to create a warm friendly
    atmosphere in classes and encourage everyone to connect with
    their individual experience on the mat. Practicing yoga in a group is always
    rewarding promoting connection, community
    and fun.

    • Focus on Nature

      I am extremely lucky to live in a beautiful rural spot in southern Scotland, surrounded by hills, rivers, natural woodland and stunning moors- the sea isn't so far away either - I find inspiration all around in native plants, grasses, wild flowers and seaweeds.

    • Cyanotype Art

      I love making new cyanotypes and experimenting with different techniques such as the wet cyanotype process, bleaching and tinting and adding finishing touches to the original work too. Each print is individually made and unique.
