Cyanotype Art - Sun Painting


Cyanotype Art—also known as Sun Printing—is the perfect way to combine a weekend walk with a creative project. This 180-year-old photographic process uses nothing but sunlight and water to create breathtaking, deep blue botanical prints. It’s "Kreative Friday" magic at its finest!

The process is addictive: you simply head outdoors to gather leaves, ferns, or interesting flowers, arrange them on the treated paper, and let the sun do the work. After a few minutes of exposure and a quick rinse in cold water, you're left with a permanent, high-contrast piece of art. No darkroom or expensive equipment required—just a sunny afternoon and a bit of imagination.

This is a fantastic activity for a group or a solo "artist date." Every print is a surprise, and the results are so beautiful they look like they belong in a gallery. It’s a rewarding way to capture the spirit of your weekend in a physical, lasting form.
