Making Ink from Plants with Erin MacKeen
Saturday June 20, 1:00 - 4:00 pm
Plants are an abundant source of colour that be found as close as our own kitchens. Learning how to extract colour from these natural sources is a fun and meaningful way to create your own art materials.
Spend an afternoon with Erin learning the process for making inks from kitchen scraps: onion skins, rosemary, and turmeric. She will step you through the equipment you’ll need, how to treat your dye materials to coax colour from them, and how to prepare what you extract for use as an ink. Pre-made samples of inks will be provided so that you can experiment with them and seehow they work on different papers with various tools.
All materials are provided.
