WHAT IS CYANOTYPE?
A LITTLE BIT OF MAGIC!
Cyanotype art is an alternative photographic printing process invented in the 19th century that captures the delicate details of natural elements like leaves, flowers, and other natural objects by placing them on treated paper or fabric and exposing them to sunlight.
This art form is a way to honor and preserve the intricate patterns and textures found in nature, celebrating this natural art process while fostering a deeper appreciation for the outdoors.

Meet the Maker
Founded by Kali McKeown, Sierra Sown grew from years spent guiding on rivers in the Sierra Nevada and finding creative grounding through cyanotype printing. What began as a way to honor the places she loves through a process that often feels like magic, has grown into a collection of functional art—made slowly, thoughtfully, and with deep respect for the natural world.
