Cyanotype workshop

What is cyanotype?

Cyanotype is one of the oldest photographic processes. It’s a simple and toxic-free technique that produces a beautiful Prussian blue print using a photosensitive solution. After arranging the plants (or objects) on the coated surface, exposing them under the sun, and then rinsing under water, magic happens… and reveals beautiful prints of the plants!

You will learn all the basics of this fascinating technique and will create your own cyanotypes from start to finish! 

By the end of the workshop (approximately 2 hour to 2hour and a half long), the original artwork that you will have created will be ready to be hung on your walls!

I can’t wait to share this magical and creative moment with you!
