This magical activity is based on a photographic process: cyanotype. Using opaque patterns, you can create designs on photosensitive paper.
When exposed to sunlight, a negative of the patterns is produced on the paper. Then, all you need to do is rinse the paper in a clean water bath and watch as the design appears on the blue back-ground!
These creations are then the night scenes forming backgrounds for the 4 poetic pictures and their illustrations.
This kit is great because:
It’s a simple, complete starter kit to take your first steps in cyanotype.
There is no need to mix chemicals!
Each creation is unique
Elegant laser-cut frames to turn each creation into a real masterpiece!
