Join artist Lavinia Haslam and create your own sea-inspired cyanotype. In this mindful session combining art and wellness, take a walk along the sea shore and engage with the soothing sound of the ocean. Collect small objects and materials that you feel drawn to, and engage with their texture, pattern, and how this makes you feel. Back in the workshop space, you will receive a practical demonstration on how to make a cyanotype or sun print. You will then have an opportunity to make your own and develop it in the sunlight.
