Erica Rae is a young Delaware artist fascinated by everything under the sea.  She considers herself a process-oriented artist.  Whether it is painting, photography or mixed media; she enjoys layering elements together to form unique and compelling pieces.  Currently her artwork combines the past and present.

    She uses a UV sensitive photographic process called a cyanotype dating back to 1842.  The prints are made from a variety of negatives and found objects.  Then, the artwork is manipulated with a variety of inks, juices, teas, and cleaners. The result is a fresh take on an old process.
