Details

During this fascinating day with Kim you will learn about the history and technical process of cyanotype and proceed to coat papers and/or material to create unique prints (using objects from the garden, stencils or prepared negatives) and watch as the sunlight magically develops your works of art.

The Cyanotype process involves painting with a light-sensitive emulsion onto paper or fabric - and using our clear Cumbrian sunlight to develop the image.
Different layers are achieved using varied exposure times and hand drawn imagery, and prepared stencils, with native plants acting as a resist.
The results are different every time so each print is a unique monotype.
