Fri, 28 May 2010 23:53:07 +0000http://www.sunprints.org/?p=716Because of bones’ three-dimensional qualities, transparencies placed underneath them still show up. Along with these, we used the drawings and notes of Charles Darwin to create Sunprint collages.

Wed, 13 Jan 2010 23:51:05 +0000http://www.sunprints.org/?p=347Thanks to my little brother, I had the opportunity to do a Sunprint project with the fourth and fifth grade gifted and talented class at Hidden Valley Elementary School in Martinez, California. It was both a lot of fun and a huge challenge!

Wed, 13 Jan 2010 23:40:10 +0000http://www.sunprints.org/?p=340The idea behind the project was to use small (4”x4”) Sunprint papers to create a larger image that you could see from a distance, but not up close.

Wed, 13 Jan 2010 20:04:54 +0000http://www.sunprints.org/?p=305On three different days, I took several sheets of Sunprint paper (in the black plastic bag), a piece of acrylic, cardboard, and tape, and went for walks up in the hills around the Lawrence Hall of Science. My goal was to take advantage of some of the beautiful shadows that are cast naturally outside.

Wed, 13 Jan 2010 01:16:26 +0000http://www.sunprints.org/?p=293The cool thing about Sunprint paper is that it catches every detail of the pictures you transfer, so even if you lose the color of the photo, you still get all the small parts, which make the resulting picture just as beautiful as the original.
