Join floral artist Lisa Shepherd in an introduction to the historic alternative photographic process of Cyanotype printing which is a form of camera-less photography. 

Discovered in 1842 the process explores the use of sunlight and shadows which are cast on treated light-sensitised paper and fabric to produce blue and white images.

After an introduction to the history of cyanotypes and how they are created, you will be shown how to safely mix and coat paper and then expose your design to UV light.  

You will learn all aspects of the process including making photograms from pressed flowers and plant cuttings as well as using feathers, lace, doilies, stencils and digital negatives.

We will also look at toning a cyanotype, which is to remove the blue colour and then introduce a new colourway.  We will use tannin, coffee, tea as well as some natural dyes such as avocado stones and skins.
