Foraging hues: creating watercolor paints from nature

Saturday, October 10 · 10 AM – 1 PM · Garden · Muir Beach

About

Make your own natural watercolor pigments from invasive plants found along our trails. In this workshop, you will learn a creative approach and method to making watercolor pigments while in the field–learning how to successfully extract pigment, bind paint, and alter colors with iron or alum—actively engaging with our environment in a creative, exciting way. Pause for moments of reflection and painting along the way, as you begin to fill your new nature journal with the hues of foraged plants!
