Make All-Natural Paints with Materials from Your Backyard

Create your own botanical pigments and build a supply of colorful, non-toxic watercolor paints with the help of this comprehensive guide. Through simple tutorials, you’ll learn to extract pigments from natural materials, such as leaves, vegetables and flowers, and turn them into vibrant watercolors-no harsh chemicals or specialty tools needed! With a few mason jars, plants from your backyard and a handful of ingredients, you can build a palette of natural hues that gives your art a distinctive, gorgeous look.

Every tutorial includes step-by-step directions and a host of pictures that guide you through the process. Discover the joy of transforming onion skins into a golden yellow paint, or sunflower seeds into a deep rose pigment. Extract a range of blues from red cabbage, and earth tones like coffee brown from orange pekoe tea. With additional information on storing your paints so they stay fresh, using them in fun activities and connecting to the environment as you go, this special book provides everything you need to make watercolor paints with success.
