Description
Making Cyanotypes ‘Sun Prints’ – Photos and Fauna on paper/fabric to create your own unique artworks.
Explore lens-free photography with this environmentally friendly 19th century blue print technique. I will take you through process of making cyanotypes allowing you plenty of time to experiment. I will demonstrate how to mix the chemicals, apply different coating techniques, judge exposure times and how to build successful compositions. You will be printing on sustainable hemp paper and fabric so you will leave with a print you can display at home. All materials will be provided but please bring any items you would like to make prints with (fauna, flora and feathers always look great).
Those who joined our last workshop will have the opportunity to take this art further with printing on stones and fabric as well as using photos!
Refreshments will be included throughout the workshop. Suitable for all abilities and ages.
THIS WORKSHOP IS PART OF OUR PRINTING DAYS AND GEL PLATE PRINTING IS IN THE AFTERNOON. IF YOU BOOK BOTH SESSIONS YOU RECEIVE A DISCOUNT. TO BOOK THE WHOLE DAY OF BOTH SESSIONS PLEASE CLICK HERE:
