Artists will work with traditional tools and materials to explore more nuanced approaches to printing, such as creating gradients, transferring woodgrain texture, and using mica powder, while also experimenting with different washi papers. Advanced topics such as tool preparation and maintenance (e.g., knife sharpening) will be covered. Designed for those with prior experience, the workshop offers a supportive space to deepen fluency and confidence in this versatile medium.

This workshop will expand on the fundamentals, introducing techniques for achieving varied results in the cyanotype process. Topics covered include toners and toning, wet cyanotype printing, cyanolumens, chine-colle, and alternative substrates.This workshop is ideal for those who already have a basic understanding of cyanotype printing and would like to learn more complex and/or creative techniques in this process. It is a great next step for students who completed SNAP’s “Exposure Essentials: Introduction to Cyanotypes” workshop.

Join artist Emily Hayes for a weekend of experimental printing fun! Anthotypes are a fun, safe, and camera-free way to work with plant materials to make photos! Using a variety of plant matter, or plant derived materials, anthotypes allow makers to take photographic impressions of objects and positives to make ephemeral artwork. Anthotype works similarly to cyanotype, but allows for a broader spectrum of colour, as emulsions can be made from any number of plants, vegetables, flowers, or their derivatives. This class is great for folks interested in photographic process, experimentation, or plant matter!
