Cyanotypes for the Solstice In-Person
Cyanotypes for the Solstice
Celebrate the beginning of summer with Cyanotypes. To celebrate the beginning of summer we will be using the sun to make Cyanotype prints. The Cyanotype process is a simple photographic process that uses the suns UV light to expose its light sensitive material, then developed in water to make a final image. This process can be used to make many types of images and has a rich visual history since its invention in 1842 by Sir John Hershel. Come learn about this process, the equinox, and make something to celebrate the beginning of a new season.
