Katy, just started watching this video. No, that is not a cyanotype. That is a sunprint. Signed, a cyanotype artist

The paint is not sticking well because you're not painting on 100% cotton or silk. Another hint: carry your creations outside on a board and put a piece of glass/plexi on top while in the sun so nothing blows away. :)

You make me wanna keep doing it ❤️🙌🙏

This really reminds me of a photographic printing process called Cyanotype. You paint the emulsion on study paper and then lay a huge negative over that, and then leave it in the sun. If you google it you'll see how similar a process. As another poster mentioned, the chemicals are toxic and need to be handled carefully (lots of ventilation too I think). You're recreating that look in a way less life threatening way. Great episode 👍😀

That is so cool. Although this process is less toxic, I like to keep my personality toxic, so it evens out. 😂😘

This was the best ! I can do it here in India so easily !

For transporting outside you could use a big flat baking sheet or chopping board. Just a thought

I think I will put a sheet of glass or acrylic to let light through but hold down the pieces when I try this.

Wow, i had no idea that it works with acrylics. Always wanted to try it but did not want to use chemicals. I even tried to get the look by putting huge leaves on a bedsheet and spraying paint with a spraybotlle on top (as a teen). Not s bad result, just not exactly what I wanted.love this!!!

I liked it but it did not have the sharp edges like yours. I also mixed paint with water then filled it into an old cleaner bottle. That gave it kind of an airbrushed look. I used a plant similar to palm fronds but a native European plant, that was also easier to manage bc they were fewer but really big peace. But I will try your method as soon as it gets warm here!

Ok so I did not know about this. The first time that I watched the video, my jaw dropped. I LOVE IT. ❤️ • You constantly give me reasons to reimagine things that I’m tired of in my apartment. • #BaguetteAuntieCrew 🧡🐈🧡
