Using both botanical materials and photographic imagery, participants will explore Cyanotype with different types of paper and fabric.
Cyanotype Workshop: Experimenting with Paper and Fabric
Sunday August 9, 10am to 1pm
This workshop expands the cyanotype process onto several kinds of paper and fabrics, using the different materials to create different results. Using both botanical materials and photographic imagery, participants will explore how light, texture can create different results to your cyanotype prints.
You will learn which fabrics and papers work best for cyanotype printing, and which to avoid, while being guided through the full process of preparing the surface, arranging compositions, exposing prints, and developing final results. Through a series of small studies, participants will build a collection of samples that highlight the unique qualities of cyanotype on cloth.
After experimenting we will print a composition in a mini canvas bag, that you can take home to store the samples we created.
All materials are included - but you can bring flowers and leaves!
