sunprints

Sun prints, or cyanotypes are one of the oldest forms of photography, discovered by the Victorians in the late 1830s. Initially it was used to record botanical specimens and famously algae by Anna Atkins. Since then it has been used and explored by artists of all ages.

Traditionally the images give a strong blue and white image, although the resulting prints can be tinted, painted over and embellished.

If you are interested in sun prints you can book me to run a workshop for your group. I am happy to travel within 1 hour of Oxford.
