Turn a treasured photograph into a timeless cyanotype artwork using the magic of sunlight.

In this unique workshop, you'll learn the complete cyanotype process—from selecting the right photograph on your phone to creating and printing your own negative onto special transparent film before exposing it in the sun to produce a beautiful blue print.

Throughout the day you'll learn how to:
💙 Choose photographs with the best lighting and contrast for successful cyanotype prints
💙 Convert your favourite photograph on your phone into a cyanotype-ready negative
💙 Print your image onto special transparent film
💙 Prepare and expose your cyanotype paper using sunlight
💙 Enhance your artwork with beautiful botanicals and natural textures
💙 Wash, develop and finish your print
💙 Frame your completed artwork to take home.

No experience is necessary. Allison will guide you through every step, and you'll leave with the knowledge and confidence to continue creating cyanotypes at home.

Your day includes:
💙 All materials supplied
💙 Morning tea and a light lunch
💙 Use of studio aprons
💙 A framed cyanotype artwork to take home.

Whether it's a child, grandchild, parent, partner, a beloved pet or a favourite family photograph, you'll create a one-of-a-kind keepsake filled with memories and beautifully preserved in shades of blue.

Places are limited, so book early to secure your spot.
