What is the course about?
This is a practical, introductory course aimed at teaching you how to create your own cyanotype prints using this fascinating, accessible process.
You will learn how to prepare the light-sensitive chemistry required, coat paper with the cyanotype solution and make a range of prints using a UV light exposure unit along with botanicals, photo negatives, hand drawn transparencies and physical objects to produce your own range of prints to take home with you.
What will we cover?
- Explore historical and contemporary use of the cyanotype process
- Learn about the chemistry required for cyanotype printing
- Explore the applications of cyanotype through a variety of exercises, using a variety of materials
- Exposure methods and timings using a UV exposure unit
- Developing techniques in water
What will I achieve?
By the end of this course you should be able to...
- Mix and prepare a light sensitive solution for cyanotype printing
- Coat and prepare paper for cyanotype printing
- Using opaque drawing materials, create hand-drawn artwork onto transparencies
- Expose and develop your prepared paper using drawings, materials and photographic artwork
- Produce your own unique cyanotype prints onto paper
- Discuss possibilities of toning cyanotypes using different solutions
What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?
All levels welcome
