Join us for a short introduction to the cyanotype (blueprint / sunprint) process.
Photography would have been a much more physical and hands-on process in Scottish artist E. A. Hornel’s time. For a taste of what this might have been like join us to watch a demonstration of a simple yet gorgeous photographic technique, without the need for a camera. Cyanotype is one of the earliest forms of photography, dating back to 1842. This workshop will introduce you to making these Prussian blue and white images, using pre-coated paper that can be bought online.
A list of materials/resources you will need is given below.
