Paper artist and Cranbourne Friend Gail Stiffe is offering a hands-on workshop in Cyanotype artwork on Sunday 23 February, for which we will be taking bookings.

Cyanotype is a simple photographic process that requires little special equipment or chemicals. It has changed only slightly since 1842 when Sir John Herschel discovered it. Also called blueprint, it requires two chemicals that when mixed together become light-sensitive. These are painted onto paper or fabric and images are produced by either photographic negatives or by objects being placed on before exposure to UV. The chemicals wash out of the areas that are masked out and those areas exposed to the sun produce a beautiful blue image.
