Cyanotype Workshop Impressions

Impressions from our first Guest Artist Workshop which took place on September 10-11. We had a wonderful group of students! We are looking forward to repeating this workshop in the Spring when the sun comes out again. 
"Cyanotype: Drawing in Four Dimensions"with Hiroshi McDonald Mori 
Dive into the process of Cyanotype in this intensive weekend workshop! Cyanotype is a photographic technique that exposes images in sunlight. Creating an image requires no negatives but rather invites a direct approach that combines elements of drawing, painting and sculpture with the final element of time. Mix the alchemical concoction discovered by Sir John Herschel in 1842 to create your own solutions, prepare, expose, and develop photosensitive paper. By learning the chemical process involved, you will also unlock infinite possibilities for deconstructing the medium to create unique effects.

  1. LOVED this workshop! Such an amazing group of people to be around. Hiro was so generous letting us play in his studio and shared so much knowledge. Beautiful Elena assisted everyone with a never ending smile and Mira had everything super organised. I was in heaven. Thank you so much.
