“Dear students: We have reached the end of the course. By now you will know us a little more and you will have seen artistic references that inspire us in cyanotype. You will know everything you need to be able to make your cyanotypes; from the materials needed to start your projects and prepare the cyanotypic solutions to the secrets for a good sunburn. We wanted to give you different options to create your photos, whether you want to work with photographs, your illustrations, botanical compositions or objects. And also for you to see the work on different media such as paper and fabric. We encourage you to choose the surface that best suits your tastes and project and the way to create the image in a photolith, identify the one that interests you the most to achieve a unique and special result. Remember to be patient and let each step be well prepared and choose the ideal time to perform the insolation, so you will have good results for your first practices and the course project. We will continue to accompany you in the forum, we will try to solve all your doubts and respond to your comments as best we can, but we ask for your patience to be able to combine it with our other areas of work. Remember that in the forum you can also interact with other classmates, share information about your work and results, as well as information on where to find materials in your area. We would love to see your progress and results. We encourage you to experiment with the cyanotype technique, you will see that it is perfect! Xavier and Gabriela Textures Factory ”
