(I-Newswire) December 27, 2009 - For Immediate Release

Erin Lale, the world's most prominent contemporary sunprint artist, just released her instructional video How to Make a Sunprint.

A sunprint is a contact photograph. In the 1800s, it was a precursor to silver process photography, and was the origin of the world "blueprint". Botanists exploring the West made botanical sunprints which are now in the collection of the Smithsonian. Sunprinting was replaced as a photographic process by the silver process, and as a duplication process by mimeography, but now Lale is reviving it as a fine art.

Lale is the inventor of the multiple layer technique of sunprinting. She sunprints on cotton unprimed canvas using washes of sunprint paint applied with a brush using a wet-on-dry watercolor technique.

Lale says, "Sunprinting is an exciting art form with so much untapped potential. I want every art student in the world to experience this beautiful art form. I filmed How to Make a Sunprint because I have a calling to teach."

How to Make a Sunprint is available as a DVD and as an Amazon Video On Demand.
