Join local Beacon artist Elizabeth Mihaltse Lindy for a hands-on introduction to making inks from the natural world. Learn how plants, minerals, and even animal-based materials can be transformed into expressive, living inks and paints using natural binders.
Working with materials such as flowers, berries, pits, and bark, you’ll explore how natural colors are extracted, modified, and deepened. Through simple chemistry and hands-on experimentation, watch colors shift and transform before your eyes as you create a palette drawn from unexpected natural sources.
