2 Component Set for Photographic blueprints on paper and fabric. Cyanotype is the “original” sun-printing process, one of the earliest photographic techniques.
Harness the power of the sun to make detailed prints from virtually any object that casts a shadow: tools, toys, plants, leaves, stones, sand, string, lace, etc. Simply place the object on the sensitized surface and expose to sunlight (UV). Use a digitally-printed photographic negative (an inverted black and white photo inkjet-printed onto a transparency*) instead of an object to create full-resolution photographs on paper or fabric. Great for photographers, mixed media artists, printmakers, quilters, kids and more, the cyanotype process is easy, forgiving, quick, magical, and fun. Capture the nuance of every shadow—a fun group activity for any age!
This set contains enough chemistry to make approximately sixty-five 8" x 10" prints on paper or fifty 8" x 10" prints on fabric.
Set includes:
2—0.8 oz/22.68 g bottles (1 each of the following):
Part A: Potassium Ferricyanide—A red iron salt used with Ferric Ammonium Citrate for cyanotype.
Part B: Ferric Ammonium Citrate—A light-sensitive iron salt used with Potassium Ferricyanide for cyanotype
