Discover the alternative photographic art of cyanotype and create a series of unique, one-of-a-kind Christmas decorations.

About the session

You will learn the historic printing process of cyanotype and transform delicate natural forms into beautiful blue-and-white artworks, presented in miniature embroidery hoops ready to hang.

Guided by printmaker Diane Cooper, you'll experiment with composition, exposure and finishing techniques to create your own unique set of festive decorations. Suitable for absolute beginners, we will provide step-by-step instruction in a friendly, creative environment.

All materials are provided, and you'll leave with a set of three mini cyanotype hoop decorations to take home.
 
This will be a relaxed creative session. No previous experience of collagraph printing is required, all abilities are very welcome and our tutor will carefully guide you through each stage of the process. Adults only.

Your workshop includes entry to the decorated house and garden on the day of your visit, and it also includes parking for one vehicle.

These workshops take place during the Christmas market, to which entry is free.
