Have it printed on paper so it can be transferred onto the linoleum.

This class is an introduction to some of the earliest 19th century photographic processes, the Cyan-blue print, Lumen contact printing, Anthotype contact printing, and a Phytography test. As a bonus, some may have a chance to shoot a roll of 120 mm BW film & process it. These larger format negatives can be used with the Cyanotype printing process.

The Cyanotype is a 170-year-old photographic printing process that produces prints in a distinctive dark greenish blue. The word cyan comes from Greek, meaning "dark blue substance." The process was invented in 1842 by Sir John Herschel, a brilliant astronomer and scientist. A lumen print is a solar photogram - an image created on photographic paper, exposed by the sun. It was one of the first photographic processes developed by Fox Talbot in 19th century England. The anthotype is printed in the sun for a few days or several weeks. The anthotype print develops as the rays of the sun destroys the color of the pigment, bleaching the print. Each and every emulsion will need a different exposure time. Some emulsions need only a few hours to change color, some a few weeks. The Phytography enables interaction between the phytochemical properties of plants and photochemical to create an image.

This workshop is suitable for everyone, especially beginners. You will learn how to compose objects, rip paper to size, mix the chemicals, make emulsion, coat paper, and expose using a UV light/Sunlight to make your own cyanotype photograms and more. Those interested will be instructed on how to create acetate digital-like negatives. You will learn how to create a beautiful set of blue prints, experiment with Lumen & Anthotype contact printing using objects & subjects of your choice. Note: Many of your exposures will be done outside of class and one session will be scheduled earlier in the day at an agreed-upon location with good light. Taught by Maria Ellen Huebner.
