DIY SUN PRINTING KIT : CYANOTYPE KIT : PHOTO PAPER : BLUE PRINT KIT

Experience yourself how to make a sun print, otherwise known as a cyanotype - Cyanotype are one of the earliest forms of photographic printmaking, 

discovered in the mid-Victorian period. A light-sensitive solution is painted onto surface and once dry it can be exposed to the sun and then developed in clean water to produce a vibrant blue print.

Engineers used the process well into the 20th century as a simple and low-cost process to produce copies of notes and diagrams, as in blueprints.

The printing process is accessible, super easy and you will be able to create a stunning final work of art with its signature Prussian blue colour within minutes!

I like to using this method of printmaking as I'm a designer(who misses working on film in a darkroom)

and this process is very hands-on. As it uses nature sunlight and water to print onto natural fibres, it's also versatile, low maintenance, and environmentally friendly.
