For over 35 years, Jacquard has been dedicated to meeting the needs of artists and crafters everywhere. Family owned and operated, we are a leading manufacturer of artist materials in the USA, committed to offering top quality materials to everyone from professional artists to hobbyists and students. The Jacquard Cyanotype Kit is a complete, “deluxe” kit for creating Prussian blue prints using sunlight or UV light. This kit has everything needed to make cyanotype prints on fabric, paper, and other natural fiber surfaces. It comes with pre-measured sensitizer solutions: Part A and Part B —just add water and mix! When blended, these solutions create a light-sensitive coating that reacts with UV exposure to develop bold blue images. Applying the solution is simple using the included 2" hake brush. Coat surfaces like cotton, linen, silk, canvas, wood, or the premium Hahnemühle Platinum Rag Fine Art Paper provided. Once dry, arrange objects, stencils, or negatives on the coated surface. The kit includes three sheets of SolarFast Film for making digital negatives, plus a film marker for hand-drawn designs. Secure everything in the included 9" x 12" glass contact-printing frame with the included clips and backerboard, then expose it to sunlight or UV light for up to 20 minutes. Light-exposed areas turn deep blue, blocked areas stay white, and partially exposed areas create a full range of tones in between. This continuous tone capability is part of what makes cyanotype such a unique and powerful medium: it captures every subtle shadow and detail. After exposure, rinse thoroughly with cold water to reveal highly-detailed and nuanced photographic images. The set comes with enough chemistry to make 4oz of sensitizing solution, to make approximately sixteen 8”x10” prints on paper or 12 on fabric. This kit offers a user-friendly way to explore one of the oldest and most versatile photographic printing processes.
