In this course, you will dive into the world of cyanotype, a historical photographic process that captures the beauty of nature in delicate shades of Prussian blue. Guided by Carasco, an artist with a unique approach to cyanotype, you will explore the relationship between natural elements like plants, sunlight, and water. You will learn how to work with botanical specimens, selecting, pressing, and preparing them for use in cyanotype art. The cyanotype process uses light and shadows, creating ghostly imprints of plants on a distinctive blue background. Throughout the course, Carasco will also share her deep connection to nature and how it influences her creative process. You will experiment with exposure times, chemistry, and composition techniques, building up to the final project where you’ll design and create a floral crown cyanotype print. With her background in cyanotype and textile design, Carasco brings an artistic yet scientific approach to this timeless technique.
