Description
Printmaking with cyanotype (aka sun prints) is an exciting photographic printing process. Sometimes results are predicable, sometimes they are not. We will work with the sun as our UV light source, and the sun and weather at the time will determine the intensity and sort of cyanotype prints we produce.
We’ll also discuss toning and staining cyanotypes, and how the process can be adapted to other surfaces like fabric and eggshells.
Whether you are new to cyanotype or printmaking, this is a great opportunity to work with a simple and exciting sun-printing medium.
The process we use is actually an alternative photographic process fast being adopted by printmakers. It was a process developed in 1842, and our approach in this workshop is much the same now as it was then.
