September 24 – Cyanotype Prints
Cyanotypes are blue-toned prints made by exposing treated paper to sunlight, then rinsing it with water to reveal the image. This outdoor project depends on sunny weather; a makeup date is scheduled for Oct 7 if needed. All materials will be provided, including fun negatives for creative collages. Want to personalize your work? You may email up to three high-contrast images to jasmine.gladitsch@isd728.org.
