Cyanotype: Unique Cards Inspired byNature and Light Workshop for Adult

Learn how to combine art and science to make your unique cards by using the power of the sun!

Cyanotype is an alternative photographic printing process that uses UV light from the sun or a UV lamp to create images. With this simple chemical process and materials found in nature, you can experiment and create unique Prussian blueprints. Each print will be one-of-a-kind, perfect for framing, gifting, cardmaking, collage, or mixed media work.

What you will learn:

• A brief history of cyanotype, as well as viewing examples to spark your creativity.

• All the steps required to create your cyanotype 5" x 7" cards.

• How to create different compositions and use objects to add visual interest to your prints.

• Identify potential problems and avoid basic errors with these tips.

Previous knowledge is not required.

Note: Cyanotype printing is weather-dependent. If the workshop day is predicted to be cloudy, we will do the workshop indoor using UV lamp.

To bring you the best program, class size will be limited to 4 participants. We recommend registering as early as possible.
