In this Skillshare class, I will be showing you how to create botanical art by using the cyanotype process. You’ll learn the basic process of cyanotype including the required supplies and tools needed, how to prepare the sensitized paper, exposure, and development of the final print. This class is open to any levels and no prior skills or knowledge required. This is going to be a fun class for those who are interested in learning one of the alternative photography processes.
WHAT IS CYANOTYPE? Cyanotype process is one of the popular alternative photography processes, its most common use in engineering and architecture until the advent of modern photocopiers. It is a contact print process that produces Prussian blue/cyan color and requires a sensitizing solution of ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide.
