Description
A simple anthotype of a stinging nettle, pruned from a plant I have growing on my studio windowsill. Stinging nettle is an important plant for our admiral butterflies, as it is where eggs are laid and the only plant the caterpillars eat.
This is a print based on a photograph made using the anthotype process. Anthotypes are created using plant dyes (in this case three layers of dye from foraged blackberries), with a ‘positive’ image placed on top and exposed to the sun.
