1 sessions |  $140 for members, $160 for non-members

$10 discount when you sign-up for Tonya’s previous workshop.

This is a stand-alone class, however some of the techniques are more fully explained in the previous days classes. Please only sign up for the add-on day if you have experience with the cyanotype process or have also signed up for the intro workshop. 

In this workshop we will be creating cyanotypes from your digital images/photographs.

In the process you will learn how to create and print your own digital negatives and then expose and develop them as cyanotype prints. Digital negatives are made on site from your digital files.
