pajama collar and lapel with button in pokeberry (Anthotype)

Of course there are a thousand other more important things to do but the paper I coated with pokeberrry juice in early in December has been calling to me.

I obtained the original pajama top from an online catalog. Depending on how I feel about the lack of sharpness or the artifacts that crop up from upscaling this may end up only being a test. My intention for this project is to create photogram anthotypes from actual pajamas obtained from thrift stores which is why this afternoon I coated  36" x 30" and a 48" x 30" pieces of Fabriano Artistico (hot press).

This "test" is approximately 14" x 11" and, weather permitting, I'll begin exposing it tomorrow.
