SALT, SUN, & SHADOW
/// the cyanotype process
each article is saturated in iron salts,
layered intentionally with Hawaiian flora, then set outside to be activated by the sun ~​
"cyanotype" is the printing process that takes place when the sun/UV light activates a blend of two iron salts, creating a blue hue, while leaving 'negatives' in the shape of any shadow present during light exposure.
​​
that's how this...
...turns into this
all pieces are handmade,
& no two prints are ever the same

About Us
Sun Kissed is currently at it's early stages of what it was born to be, ran by a one woman show: Jaira! (Go to the "about" page to learn more about her.)
​
Over the past 5 years, Jaira has held a deep desire to provide resources for women, specifically single mothers or women attempting to leave resource dependent relationships.
​
She recently had a vision to expand Sun Kissed into an artistic endeavor & creative financial opportunity for mothers and women. The next stage of Sun Kissed includes bringing on 1-2 women to weave into the expansion and deeper purpose of our brand.
