Instructor: Julie Beeler
Cost: $45.00
Age: All Ages

 Learn how to coax a myriad of colors from mushrooms and extract their pigments to make paints and inks perfect for any artist. In class we will unlock the pigments of commonly found Pacific Northwest dye mushrooms. We will cover the lake making process which is a great way to extract pigment from dye baths, and convert the pigment into a solution for painting and printing. Learn the process of making inks and play with mixing pigments into paints by exploring different ways to mix, bind and apply the pigment with natural materials so you can continue your exploration in more depth on your own. Everyone will leave with their own mushroom ink and a mushroom painted bookmark.
