Cyanotypes
One of the wonderful things about living in Arizona is the ability to create cyanotypes on a regular basis. Annually, I facilitate a photography club with children. The first project we do is cyanotype printing. The following are the examples made to demonstrate what was expected.
 |
| They were asked to take photos of textures that could be later incorporated into more complex cyanotypes and photograms. |
 |
| They were presented with silk flowers and other shapes to utilize in their solar prints. This was in preparation for photograms the following week. |
 |
| Members were challenged to incorporate a transparencey image of a pattern or texture that they enjoyed and a stencil negative. |
This was done by using a transparent image and a stencil.
These projects were very simple and were a great way to teach the youth about negatives and the effeccts of light on an image.
