Cyanotype
The process uses two chemicals: ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide. These chemicals are mixed in equal parts then 1) coated onto paper, then the paper is dried. 2) Once it has dried, place whatever you want to print onto the paper (leaves, other plants, photo negatives, etc).3) The paper then needs to be left out in the sun, or under a UV light for a period of time. 4) Once exposed, the paper must then be washed and 5) hung to dry
