This deeply connecting workshop brings us back to the way our ancestors sourced and made paint . This workshop will be an introduction to making natural pigments from some or our shores and rivers, you will learn how to make a fine pigment, how to create paint and work with the clay and ochre from our shorelines . This is a workshop for those that love to explore colour, texture and create art from are most precious natural materials.  We will explore the land at the Gathering Fields and look at different stones, clays and pigment from our surrounding shores. ( please bring a pack lunch) The afternoon will be comparing materials and making paint from our found materials. Refreshments are provided but please bring your own lunch .All materials are provided with a selection of paints to try and explore. This is such a beautiful process to do together and explore our surrounding area and shores stories. The class room  is our logfired cosy barn and a great place to try your artist skills and paint the way our ancestors did. We have only 8 places available so booking is essential.
