Jacquard's Cyanotype Kit makes sun printing easier than ever and includes everything you need to get started. The chemistry comes premeasured in lightproof black bottles. Simply fill each bottle with water to create Stock Solutions A & B, and then mix the two in equal parts to create the cyanotype sensitizer. Coat the included Hahnemuhle Platinum Rag Fine Art Paper with the sensitizer and, once dry, create prints by exposing to sunlight or UV (10- 20 minutes, depending on conditions), using the included glass printing frame and objects or a film negative* to create an image. After exposure, prints are processed in a tray of cool water and allowed to air dry. The kit comes with enough material to make at least 12 (8.5x11in/ 21.59 x 27.94cm) prints.


Cyanotype is the original sunprinting process, developed in the mid 1800's, distinctive for its rich blue color.


Here's how it works: when the cyanotype paper is exposed to sunlight, a chemical reaction occurs. An object or transparent film "negative" placed on top will block the light and leave an impression of its shadow. But the print won't reveal itself until you put the paper in water. Then it will instantly turn blue!


Negative Generator: Easily transform any image into a film negative with Jacquard's online Negative Generator. Negatives may be printed through any inkjet or laser printer onto the provided SolarFast Film. WWW.JACQUARDCYANOTYPE.COM
