Natural Ink-Making

Natural Ink-Making in the Fall Landscape with Elizabeth Schmuhl

Saturday, October 12, 2024 from 10:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.

Create original paintings, book marks, and cards with freshly foraged, handmade inks — and gain some inspiration for future inky experiments! Participants will begin the day outside (so dress for the weather) foraging the autumnal landscape for plants and other natural materials. You are also encouraged to bring plants or other materials from home; anything can be used to create ink! Next, participants will learn the ink-making process using your new found materials. Wrap up the day by experimenting with your fresh inks on different substrates. Materials will be provided. This workshop includes lunch at 1:00 p.m.
