About Selah Revival
Selah is a word found throughout the Book of Psalms - a gentle invitation to pause and reflect.
Selah Revival exists as that invitation to you.
In a hurried world, it offers room to slow down, restore what has been worn thin, and remember what is sacred. A quiet space for reflection and renewal.
This studio is dedicated to slow-made cyanotype art: handcrafted botanical prints created with sunlight, water, and time. Each piece is exposed by light, rinsed in water, and revealed gradually. No two are alike. The variations are part of the beauty.
Rooted in faith and shaped by the natural world, Selah Revival values what is handmade, honest, and unhurried. Art here is not decoration, but devotion.
About the Artist
I’m Autumn - an artist, mother of three, and Virginia Beach native.
I first fell in love with cyanotype in college and returned to it years later during a slower season of life. What began as simple botanical experiments at my dining room table became a steady rhythm of working with my hands and honoring the gift of creativity.
My faith guides my work. This studio is my offering…created prayerfully with care, gratitude, and trust in the process.
Thank you for being here.
The Selah Revival Process
Light reveals.
Water restores.
Time transforms.
Natural paper or fabric is hand-coated with light-sensitive solution and left to dry in darkness. Pressed botanicals are arranged on the surface and exposed to sunlight. Each day’s unique light determines the timing and outcome. Once complete, the piece is rinsed in water, revealing its signature blue. The result is archival and one-of-a-kind.
This is slow art…made by hand and meant to be lived with.
Cyanotype is one of the oldest alternative photography processes, developed in 1842. Selah Revival uses the traditional method inspired by Sir John Herschel’s historic process - producing its enduring blue (known as Prussian Blue) through the interaction of UV light and iron salts.
