Place any object or transparency on the sunography fabric, expose in bright sunlight, and rinse with water to reveal a rich blue print over assorted colours of fabric. Sunography fabric is 100% cotton archival watercolour paper, light sensitive on both sides for two sided prints. The superior quality and weight of Sunography fabric produces finely detailed prints. The prints can also be toned yellow or sepia using rinses with common household liquids. Tarjetas – 7.6 x 12.7 cm (3 ”x 5”) papel de 270 g/m2 prensado en caliente en colores surtidos. Cada paquete de tarjetas Sunography incluye 5 tarjetas en colores surtidos. ¡Actividad divertida para hacer con los niños, gran proyecto de artesanía para adultos! One thing which because obvious was that taping the transparency to the light-sensitive paper wasn’t enough. My prints were coming out patchy because the paper was warping. Using a glass sheet to hold the acetate against the paper made a huge difference to the print. This project was kind of funny. Originally I planned on doing a data set based on dog breeds. Then I found this timeline of the far future set and realised I had to stay on brand. The entire way through college I chose projects where I could create something related to science fiction (or fact). Why change from what I enjoy now I’m at university.

Place any object or transparency on the sunography paper, expose in bright sunlight, and rinse with water to reveal a rich blue print. Sunography paper is 100% cotton archival watercolour paper, light sensitive on both sides for two sided prints. The superior quality and weight of Sunography paper produces finely detailed prints that are suitable for tinting or hand colouring with any media. The prints can also be toned yellow or sepia using rinses with common household liquids. Step 3 – Place the acrylic pressing sheet on top to flatten and hold your items to the Sunprint paper By using the workshops available to me at university I was able to experiment with both film photography and creating photograms. But what I came to realise is that I much preferred the cyanotype process to photogram. You can use a paper towel or a piece of cardboard as a bed for your print while it dries. Putting it on something absorbent will help to avoid the formation of water spots by drawing the water away from the Sunprint paper. However, artists also found that photography could also be used as a new form of art. Artists like László Moholy-Nagy experimented with a technique called photograms. This is a type of photography very similar to the cyanotype process. It works without a camera by placing objects directly on photosensitive paper. Exposing the paper to light then creates a negative image of the objects.Anna Marikar, mum of four and seasoned blogger, has spent over a decade sharing her parenting journey and passion for kid-friendly crafts and free printables. Cyanotypes need to be rinsed for at least 10 minutes after exposure. This washes out the remaining chemical. This means it is preferable to use a heavier weight of paper. Printer paper just wouldn’t work. Incidentally, I learned that Fabriano Artistico hot press paper works very well with the cyanotype process and makes a very nice print. USING CYANOTYPE AT ART SCHOOL Cyanotype is what’s known as a photographic printing process. It was first invented in 1842 and has been used up until very recently as a low-cost way to reproduce diagrams and drawings. The process works by mixing two chemicals, ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide. This creates a liquid which is sensitive to light. As you can see above we made prints with wooden dinosaur shapes, and wooden under the sea shapes, plastic and metal cookie cutters, and other items like bottle tops and tape rolls.

The superior quality of Sunography produces finely detailed prints which can also be tinted, hand painted or decorated once exposed. Use old photo negatives, x-rays, bits of lace, leaves, printed transparencies or even household objects to compose beautiful designs! I’ve had so much fun learning cyanotype over the last year. I love that my art school has given me the opportunity to learn new techniques like cyanotype and darkroom processing. Cyanotype is something I would highly recommend everyone give a try if you get the chance. Though it wasn’t great you could even get some of the Sun paper because of how simple it is.Despite spending a lot of time developing my cyanotypes I never used any of them in my final publication. Instead, I went in a different direction, looking at photomontage. My film photos had the same aspects which made me love the cyanotype process. They contained lots of texture and you were never quite sure how the photo will come out till it has been developed. I like having texture in my art. And the cyanotype process worked very well for this. Especially at first when I had to learn the proper way to coat the paper in the cyanotype solution. I later learned that the Fabriano Artistico paper creates a very nice texture when being used for cyanotypes. Something I experimented with in my next project. I want to share some of my projects at art school where I’ve been able to use cyanotype as part of my process. It’s something I’ve really have fallen in love with. I never expected to use cyanotype at university. MODERNISM PUBLICATION

Six 6 x 6" (15.2 x 15.2cm) coloured sheets enclosed; green, orange, rose, turquoise, violet and white Place objects such a leaves or flowers on the Sunography paper and expose in bright sunlight. Then, rinse in water and a rich blue print will appear. Light sensitive on both sides to make two-sided prints. The 185gsm paper produces finely detailed prints. Instead, I exposed a sheet of paper with no objects or transparencies covering it. This gave me just the cyanotype texture. This sheet I could then scan onto the computer and create a digital version of the cyanotype using illustrator. I could have used Photoshop to blur parts of the text, adding to the cyanotype exposure feel. FINALLY

My infographic poster project was the last brief I worked on in year 2 and I think it was the one I had the most fun with. This brief was split into two parts. First I had to create an infographic based on a piece of personal data. For this, I looked at how much I use my phone. I’ve mentioned in another post how this made me realise I’m too reliant on social media. Please note that customers are responsible for the cost of returning the item/s, unless incorrect or faulty.

Sunography comes in three styles: Place any object or transparency on the sunography cards, expose in bright sunlight, and rinse with water to reveal a rich blue print. Cyanotype is a very easy photographic process and can be used for much more than just reproducing photographs. The first book featuring cyanotype prints was created by Anna Atkins in 1843. Cyanotype allowed Atkins to document ferns and other plant life by creating what is known as photograms. This is a process still used today by many well known modern artists. MY FIRST EXPERIMENTS WITH CYANOTYPE The advantage of using this paper is that you don’t have to mess about with dangerous chemicals. All that has been done for you. You just need to find something to print using the sun paper.By placing objects on paper coated in this substance it is possible to create a silhouette effect on the paper. The liquid reacts with sunlight causing it to turn blue where it was exposed to UV rays. Once the chemicals are washed out this leaves a cyan coloured print with the unexposed areas left in white. In The Playroom is a UK based Parenting Lifestyle Blog with a focus on crafts, free printables and kids activities. Founded in 2011, the blog is ranked #2 in the UK and is co-written by Anna Marikar and Luciana Oliveira, best friends and mums of 5 kids and a dog. As I said, I didn’t have the right tools to actually produce a handmade version of the infographic. It’s easy enough getting A3 paper. But I didn’t have a large enough board to hold the paper flat. I also didn’t have a large enough sheet of glass to hold the acetate against the paper. Step 5 – Rinse your Sunprint paper in water. Watch the white turn into blue and the blue turn into white. Place any object or transparency on the Sunography expose it in bright sunlight, and rinse to reveal a rich blue print.
