Blue Lotus, detail, by Amy Crook

I did a few monoprints along this vein, but I think this one was my favorite. Though named for a blue lotus, it always looked a bit more like a morning glory to me, just opening up for the day with dew dripping off the blue petals. The small 3-inch-square image floats on a larger sheet of paper, a single blossom in a pool of white.
