Blue Hour Experience session imagery for small business branding in Waukesha, WI with Denise Watrous Photography.

Wisconsin's Only Cyanotype Experience!

Paint With Light. Create Something You'll Never Forget

Slow down, get creative, and discover the magic of painting with light. During this guided hands-on experience, you'll design your own cyanotype artwork using botanicals, objects, and photographic negatives and transparencies before watching it develop into a stunning Prussian blue art piece.

No artistic experience is required, just curiosity and a willingness to create something uniquely yours!

Keep Scrolling! The best is yet to come!

CREATE

Begin by mixing two simple solutions that become a light-sensitive emulsion when combined. Brush the magic onto your watercolor paper. As it dries, explore our collection of botanicals, objects, and photographic transparencies to create a design that is uniquely yours.

What's next?

EXPOSE

Place your finished design beneath our custom UV lights and watch science become art! In just a few minutes, invisible light transforms the light-sensitive emulsion, capturing the design you brushed on or carefully arranged. This is the moment your artwork comes to life!

Show me the magic!

REVEAL

Your artwork's journey continues in its first water bath. As the unused solution washes away, the hidden image slowly starts to emerge. It's the first glimpse of what's been waiting beneath the surface....and the most magical moment is still to come. Trust us...the best part is still ahead!

TAKE HOME

Your masterpiece is ready! Leave with one-of-a-kind cyanotype artwork created entirely by YOU! Every piece is different, every design tells a story, and every time you see it, you'll remember the experience of painting with light and bringing it to life!
