Make a Cyanotype from Any Photo

Printing Cyanotypes has been around for over 100 years and continues to be experimented with my many artists. It was used primarily as a means to print blueprints but artists like Anna Atkins, Christian Marclay, Marco Breuer, and Kate Cordsen have used the medium to create phenomenal works.


In this video I show you some of the experimental ways I use cyanotypes, as well provide tips and tricks to getting the best results for yourself.
