Experiment with cyanotype photography to create a botanical-printed t-shirt.

Use cyanotype printing to design your own nature-inspired t-shirt. These light-sensitive prints are incredibly fun to experiment with. They are also great for capturing intricate botanical forms such as flowers, leaves and grasses. Best of all, they can be used on fabric as well as paper, making it into wearable art!

In this workshop I will cover the steps of cyanotype printing on fabric. I will show you how to:

Mix and apply the sensitiser solution
Select your botanical samples
Compose your own custom design
Prepare and expose your design to get a crisp, intricate print
Develop your printed t-shirt

We will work with pressed, dried and fresh botanical samples. Prints will be made on 100% organic cotton t-shirts (prepared with sensitiser in advance due to drying time). We will also practice preparing and applying the sensitiser using paper and fabric samples, which you can take away to print at home.

What to expect

3.5 hour, half-day workshop
Materials and equipment provided
Tea and coffee
Relaxed and welcoming environment
Personalised tuition and help to design and create your custom t-shirt

What will I take away?

A cotton t-shirt (your choice of size). Printed using real botanical samples and cyanotype photography processes. Additional samples of cyanotype sensitised paper and fabric you have prepared.
