Ranchos Church

65 Comments
Artist's Comments
In 1929 georgia O'keeffe painted the Ranchos Church in Taos.

It was a mind blowing expreiance to be able to go and photgraph it in about 1998

Here is a cyanotype on water color I made of the image

cyanotype is a photographic printing process that gives a cyan-blue print.

The English scientist and astronomer Sir John Herschel discovered this procedure in 1842. Though Herschel is perhaps the inventor of the cyanotype process, it was Anna Atkins, a British scientist, who brought the process into the realm of photography. She created a limited series of cyanotype books that documented ferns and other plant life. By using this process, Anna Atkins is regarded as the first female photographer.

This is completely candid. I did not even know the camera was there.

I am doing what I often do and I am listening.

This is the face that children see and seek out for help.

My father and I look like twines if you mach photos of us up by age. Even the glasses seem the same. And yet I to the best of my knowledge no child ever came to him, climb up in his lap and tried to tell him what they wanted for Christmas.
