Introduction to Cyanotype Workshop

This three hour workshop will introduce you to the basics of the cyanotype process. The workshop is ideal for beginners who wish to learn how to print onto hand-coated paper using an early photographic process. 

Students will learn how to mix light-sensitive cyanotype chemistry, how to coat paper, how to make photograms, how to make a photographic cyanotype print from a negative, and a brief history of the cyanotype process. Each student will leave with 4-8 cyanotype prints of their own.

What to bring

All materials will be provided. You will need to email your tutor a selection of high resolution digital images in advance of the workshop, and you can also bring a selection of flat objects to make photograms with.
