Join teaching artist Amanda Chesney in an exploration of cyanotype printmaking.
This versatile art form uses light and shadow from objects to create an image in shades of blue. Students will learn about the history of cyanotype and see a demonstration of the technique before creating their own images using sunlight and cyanotype papers prepared by the instructor. Exposure times, alternative light sources, adding image layers, washing out and drying the prints will all be covered.
