Overview
On March 21 join artist Marissa Baez in creating cyanotypes using NMIH's historic blueprint machine. In this workshop, you will have the opportunity to print two of your photos or images using a Continuous Electric Printing Machine over 100 years old. Marissa will print your images on transparent film before the workshop, then show you how she used the transparencies and the historic machine to create the cyanotypes in her recent exhibit titled Materia Medica at ArtsQuest. In addition to your machine exposed image, you can create an additional cyanotype using sunlight. In your additional cyanotype, feel free to bring materials of your choice (flowers, leaves, stones) or email another image ahead of time.
Be sure not to wear loose jewelry or open-toed shoes. If you have long hair, please bring a hair tie. Make sure to email Marissa Baez your images at marissabaezart@gmail.com by March 14th. Registration will close on March 13th at 4:30PM.
