with Wendy Currie

© wendy currie

This workshop will show you how to make images from digital or analogue negatives, photograms from objects such as leaves, lace, feathers, mesh and many more.
This workshop is a totally engaging hands-on experience, involving the participant from the choice and preparation of paper, until the moment the image is revealed.
Wendy will also show you how to achieve a subtle variety of shades with various toning chemicals.

In 1991 Wendy Currie completed a Graduate Diploma specialising in 19th Century photographic printing processes, and has been fascinated by them ever since. Cyanotype was one of the earliest processes in the development of photography, but remains a satisfying creative medium for modern photographic artists.
