Studio Day 34

 

Larry Wolf, Night Swimming at The Weather Station, Lafayette Indiana (2026)

Casey Roberts, almost neck deep (wabash river) (2026)
cyanotype w/acrylic on paper, 35 x 42 inches

For years, Indianapolis-based artist Casey Roberts has incorporated the cyanotype process into his works on paper, manipulating a technique traditionally associated with photography to create his distinct collage-paintings. By exposing his prepared drawings to the sun, his marks, washes and stencils bloom into a range of deep, rich blues. His landscapes - often night scenes - are paradoxical: they render moonlight through the use of the sun. For Nightswimming, he returns to a solitary figure bathing in open water - a motif explored by the artist in earlier series.
