Make Your Own Watercolor Paints from Nature

@ Register Now! This class was so popular, we’re bringing it back! Learn to create your own watercolor paints using plants and earth pigments! Natural watercolors bring both delicate and vibrant hues to your artwork, adding depth and life to every brushstroke. In this workshop, we’ll explore how to extract color from natural materials and transform it into pigment, which can then be mulled into rich watercolor paints. Participants will create and take home their own set of three half-pans of handmade natural watercolors.
