Using light sensitive chemicals, you’ll expose prints in the sun and process them in water. By the end of class, you’ll have 4 gorgeous 8 x 10 cyanotype prints and the know-how to create more at home. Let’s celebrate the natural world by making botanical blueprints together!
All art supplies are included, but you're encouraged to bring your favorite assortment of plant materials, such as pressed plants or flowers, or interesting objects to make prints that are uniquely yours!
