Learn how to make beautiful ink using plants.
About this Event

Learn to make botanical ink for drawing, painting and printmaking.

We’ll start by learning about the basic science on pigments in plants and some history on how different plants have been cultivated for color in art-making. Next, we’ll use botanical materials found and grown locally to make primarily water-based inks using similar methods to natural dyeing.

Take home one ink to use and the knowledge to make more.

Instructor bio :

Sarah Moss-Horwitz (she/her) is an artist and designer based in Oakland, California. She works with natural dyes, inks, textiles and printmaking to make sense of what it means to be alive in an era of human and environmental catastrophe.

Her practice is one of curiosity, exploration and surprise, harvesting materials and inspiration from her lived experiences and physical material surroundings to capture moments and reflect.
