31 Dec Earth Pigment Paint & Ink Making
In this class, we will remember how our prehistoric ancestors made beautiful art in co-creation with the land. Since the beginning of time, we have respectfully collected crumbs of earth’s pigments and charred twigs to make paint. With deep reverence, we will do so again on sacred Cederbloom land.
Be guided to shift your creativity from your mind to a playful and grateful place and make beauty with and in honor of Earth. A nourishing learning space for pigment paint- and ink-making in the woods where you find and grind rocks collected from many places, and make fine ink from charcoaled vine twigs.
Assemble your venerate earth color spectrum palette and make peace with beliefs that may have blocked you, in the process.
Let your heart essence connect with Earth and invite yourself to create on an array of art surfaces like paper, stone, or your skin as you open up to joy for artistic expression, awe for Earth’s beautiful colors, and connectedness with our ancestors.
“Learn about a place by holding the earth in your hand, breathing in the scent, and letting the soil play on paper. “
