Cyanotype Botanicals Workshop

This workshop we will create beautiful handmade cyanotype prints using camera-less photography with natural flowers and plants on paper. The beautiful flowers are sourced from District 2 Floral. In this workshop you will learn the basics of cyanotype, how to mix and apply chemicals, how to expose and develop prints.
An alternative process of photography, cyanotype was invented by Sir John Hershel in 1842. Cyanotype is a beautiful photographic printing process that produces a Prussian blueprint using non-toxic chemicals, ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide to create a UV sensitive solution which produces vibrant Prussian blue colors. Today this striking artform is not only used to document nature but also to create unique images on paper, fabric or other found materials. All materials provided. No experience required
