We'll harness the summer sunlight to create unique, signature cyan prints. In this introductory class we will explore the history and chemistry of the cyanotype process with a focus on composition and experimentation with materials. Students will learn to coat their own paper, compose objects based on translucency and opacity, and expose their prints in the sun!
(In the event that BAC has to cancel a class session due to weather or facility emergencies, please note the pre-scheduled make up date for this course will be August 9. More information on our policies for cancellations can be found HERE.)
CLASS MATERIALS
A materials fee has been included in tuition and all materials will be provided for this class. Students are welcome to bring objects of varying translucence -- flowers, plastic, glass, jewelry, lace, large format negatives etc.

In addition, restrooms are located on the basement level of our building so stair use is also required.
