Sunprint Super Kit

Developed by educators at the Lawrence Hall of Science, University of California, Sunprints encourage an interest in the photographic process using only sun, water, and a bit of imagination.

Place a fern, flower, or other object on the special paper and set it in the sun briefly. Then rinse the paper in water and watch as a beautiful long-lasting image appears!

• EASY TO USE: Objects that eclipse the sun’s light will show up in white, with the rest of the paper turning a vibrant Prussian Blue. Place a fern, flower, or other object on the special paper and set it in the sun briefly. Then rinse the paper in water and watch as a beautiful long-lasting image appears!
• HANDS-ON FUN: Sunprinting is a great hands-on activity to do with groups. Whether it be in the classroom, in a camp, a museum workshop, a birthday party or any other group setting, get people together, share ideas and play
• VERSATILE: Layering techniques, motion, and manipulation of the paper itself are all implemented in the Sunprinter’s toolbox. Make prints of physical objects or transfer digital images via a transparency sheet
• ART WITH THE POWER OF THE SUN: Sunprinting is based on the cyanotype process, which has been used by artists since its development in the 19th century
• SUN-BASED SCIENCE: Sunprint paper can be used as a scientific tool. Its sensitivity to ultraviolet light lends itself to sun-based investigations. It can also be used as a measuring tool for any other UV light source, or as a photographic medium to use in scientific experiments

Contains 15 8”x12” sheets and 1 acrylic overlay.
