 Van Dyke Photography Workshop

Make photographs without a camera! The possibilities are endless and well within the grasp of the beginner, while challenging for those with experience in photography. We will be working with Van Dyke, which produces a brown and white photograph on paper or cloth. Bring old black and white negatives and interestingly shaped objects to class.
You will first coat paper or cloth with Van Dyke’s special mixture of a light sensitive solution. You will make a negative
by drawing on a transparency using a permanent marker, cutting out and attaching pieces of old black and white negatives, or using the copy machine to transfer a previously created image to a transparent sheet. This solution is extremely light sensitive so you’ll see the exposure begin as soon as you take it out to the sunlight. After exposure,
develop with running water.
