      Hey y’all I was thinking about organizing a workshop at my place (Trešnjevka) or in Otvoreni Studio Keramike if Milenka has a free time slot in the week from 16th – 22nd of June, from 6-8 or 9 in the evening let’s say.

      2 ideas for the workshop: cyanotype & art circle. Cyanotype is an alternative photographic technique that uses UV light and photosensitive liquid to create beautiful blue reproductions. You can use my illustrations, bring your own or use plant material. If we’ll be making cyanotypes we have to do it at my place because I have a box with UV lights. It can also be done in the sun but that’s very unreliable because of the clouds, rain etc. Another suggestions is a general art workshop or let’s say something like ‘art practice circle’ where everyone brings their own project to work on, we chat and have drinks. I can show you my watercolor practice which I’ve been very immersed into lately.

      Let me know if you’re interested, which day suits you and which option you find more interesting. You can also contact me via email orlabirdorla@gmail.com and here’s my insta: https://www.instagram.com/orla_bird/

      Cheers

      Dorla! This is fantastic! I once was at her cyanotype workshops and results and conversation were fantastic!! I very much support this initiative! Unfortunately, OSK is not available at the moment for such a great event!! I am so sorry for that. But I would definitely try to join if the scheduled date matches!

      Actually if we were to do the cyanotype workshop it has to be at my place because transporting that huge and heavy UV light box is such a drag.

      I wish I could join, too far away!!!! Anyways, the other day I was with an artist that makes totebagcs with cyanotype techniques, may I try here in Spain.

      Awesome idea! This week I had the chance to go to a workshop at the Etnografski Muzej in Zagreb and it was like magic 🧝‍♂️ I would love to learn more about the technique 😍

      I guess this will happen after summer… I would love to join. I have been experimenting a little my self last week! But I didnt prepare the the paper I used and it wasnt the beautiful quality I saw Dora uses… So looking forward!

      Milenka & Stephanie those are great! Yeah I proposed a workshop in June because I wasn’t sure who’s going be in Zagreb during summer (and I have to prepare my cyanotype exhibition for 16th of October – save the date!!). Not many people reacted so I thought there’s not much interest yet maybe many people didn’t even see my proposal on the forum… We could definitelly have a workshop at my place in the beginning of September? Here’s the photo in attachment of what I’m preparing for the exhibition in October! Ton of work :O
