Cyanotype:
The cyanotype process uses a piece of thick paper such as watercolor paper and coating it with iron salts and are exposed by placing them in sunlight for around 30 minutes. We made some cyanotypes in class using transparent layers to create an image.
I personally am interested in creating cyanotypes and either drawing or painting on top of them to bring more color into the photos.
This cyanotype by Egill Ibsen was hand painted with acrylics and I really love how the different colors added dimension and more depth to the image.
