Project 1: Cyanotype Printing / by Nicholas Valledor

For my first project in ART 568 (Alternative processes in photography) I was tasked with creating cyanotype prints. I chose to focus my project on photographing abandoned houses and using the brush strokes when applying the cyanotype to help frame the images. After developing, I chose to coffee stain the prints as a way of giving them a more "vintage" look. The scanned prints are posted below along with the pre-printing digital images. The scans of the prints don't adequately show the coffee staining, but you can still see the blue tones of the cyanotype.
