Jaylyn Crowe
Step inside the blue and mystical world of cyanotype with Jaylyn Crowe. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the fundamentals of cyanotype printing, from mixing chemistry to exposing and developing your design, while also exploring the creative possibilities of composition. We’ll experiment with arranging objects, layering materials, and incorporating collage techniques to create dynamic, one-of-a-kind works. By the end, you’ll not only understand the process, but also discover how to integrate cyanotype into your own art practice or everyday life.
Open to all levels. No prior experience required, only the desire to learn and experiment. All materials are provided, but feel free to bring materials or found objects to include in your work.

Jaylyn Crowe
Jaylyn Crowe is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice is grounded in ceramics. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Memphis, graduating summa cum laude.
Through her practice, Crowe preserves and honors the history of her family across generations using memories as source material. Through visual storytelling and clay, she creates held truths and carries them forward into the future.
Crows are a recurring symbol in her work, and she is drawn to the capacity for memory shared by both clay and crows. Clay physically retains the memory of its maker's hands, preserving every touch and impression within its surface. Likewise, crows retain memories of the places they travel, the faces they encounter, and the stories they carry.
Crowe’s work embodies the relationship between material and lived experience, suggesting that memory exists both within self and objects created by hand.
