Join Tobi Indyke from Periwinkle Skies Farm to learn to make your own fine art pigments from materials foraged straight from Mother Earth! We will review samples of different clays, rocks and mushrooms as well as foraged plants that can all be used to make natural pigments. Tobi will instruct us, step by step, in the art and science of processing these natural elements into useful pigments in a rainbow of colors. Processes will include crafting both watercolor and gouache paints.
There will be time provided for you to do some experimentation of your own!
Paint recipes will be shared and participants can take home some foraged plants for practicing their new skills at home.
Ticket price includes all materials.
