Cyanotype Saturday - August 5th 10:30 am - 12:30 pm - make your own cyanotype workshop!

SIGN UP HERE: https://rchlmldr.com/shop/p/cyanotype-saturday-aug05

I’m so excited to invite you to join me to explore the alchemical magic of cyanotype with me at Grover’s Curiosity Shop! In this workshop, each participant will be invited to create one to three cyanotypes on 9 x 12 inch watercolor paper! This alternative photo process uses chemicals and sunlight to create stunning and mysterious images that transform when rinsed in water! Also known as "sun prints", this accessible medium involves placing objects onto treated paper, becoming blue wherever the sun's rays have reached it.

Rachel will provide a short demo and share examples of her work. Then, each participant will make their very own cyanotypes on watercolor paper, hand painted by Rachel herself. She will be bringing materials like paper, tchotchkes, fun see-through things, natural objects, etc. for you to play with! Feel empowered to bring your own special treasures, as long as you don’t mind it cooking in the sun for a bit. Objects from Grover’s Curiosity Shop may be used under a “you break it, you buy it” policy :)

$45/per person, 10 people max.
