In this hands on workshop you will create your own cyanotype prints on archival fine art paper. Cyanotype printing is a historic photographic printing process, used by artists, botanists and architects, which uses the light of the sun to expose light sensitive paper. This process is experimental in nature resulting in unique original artworks. Drawing on the natural surrounds as inspiration, participants will use botanicals to create a range of unique prints.

Since each print is handmade and made in collaboration with nature, tones will vary from light blue hues to deep shades of indigo blue. A perfect combination of nature, art & alchemy!

No experience necessary and all materials are provided.
