The Cyanotype is one of the earliest forms of photography, which uses only light-sensitive paper (or fabric) and sunlight. Students will receive a fun, hands-on approach to understanding light by creating their individual sun print—or cyanotype.

This program uses plants, natural materials, and painting techniques to make Cyanotype. The Cyanotype is one of the earliest forms of photography, which uses only light-sensitive paper or fabric and sunlight.
