Jacquard Cyanotype Kit

This new 24 piece Cyanotype Kit from Jacquard Products makes sun printing easier than ever and includes everything needed to get started.
The chemistry comes pre-measured in lightproof black bottles. Simply fill each bottle with water to create Stock Solutions A & B and mix the two in equal parts to create the cyanotype sensitizer. Coat the included 300g Hahnemuehle 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 objects and the included glass printing frame 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 a dozen 8.5″ x 11″ prints.

About Cyanotype:

Cyanotype is the “original” sun printing process, and one of the earliest photographic techniques. Discovered in 1842, it is distinctive for producing rich, Prussian blue monochromatic prints. Cyanotype was popular well into the 20th century as an inexpensive method for reproducing photographs, documents, maps and plans. Hence the enduring architectural term “blueprint”. Also, famously, for making impressions of biological specimens in the field “photograms”.

Harness the power of the sun to make detailed prints from virtually any object that casts a shadow: tools, toys, plants, leaves, stones, sand, string, as well as lace, and more. Simply place the object on the sensitized cyanotype surface and expose it to sunlight (UV). Try using a digitally printed photographic negative (an inverted black and white photo inkjet printed onto a transparency*) instead of an object to create full resolution photographs on paper or fabric.

Great for photographers, mixed media artists, printmakers, quilters, kids and more. The cyanotype process is easy, forgiving, quick, magical and fun. Capture the nuance of every shadow—a fun group activity for any age!
