Create stunning and ethereal paper art using an ancient photographic technique that harnesses the power of sunlight to produce beautiful cyan-blue prints. Using special solar-sensitive paper, household objects, and natural materials, you will compose unique arrangements that produce beautiful ghostly patterns on paper through a process that feels like pure magic. Whether you gather natural items such as leaves and flowers or household objects like buttons, keys, and lace, participants will use their creative sensibilities to arrange these materials artfully. The resulting finished pieces can be beautifully framed as wall art, used as decorative note cards to send to loved ones, or displayed throughout your home.
Cyanotype is a historic photographic printing process that creates distinctive cyan-blue prints. Engineers utilized this simple and cost-effective process well into the twentieth century to produce copies of technical drawings, commonly referred to as blueprints, making it an important part of industrial documentation history.
