Create unique artwork by placing any object onto the Sunography paper, exposing to bright sunlight and rinsing with water to reveal a rich print. The paper contains light sensitive materials, which react to sunlight. Each sheet can be exposed on both sides and prints can also be tinted, hand painted or decorated once exposed. Use old photo negatives, x-rays, bits of lace, leaves, printed transparencies or even household objects to compose designs. Sunlight sensitive material (the cyanotype) was a forerunner of modern photographic processes. This type of print dates back to 1842 and was popularised by Anna Atkin, one of the first female photographers. 8 x 13 cm, 5 cards per pack, 8+ Show more
