Painting Mixology in the Art Nest

This month we will explore a variety of processes related to painting. Join us in making your own paints out of natural plant based materials such as: beet, indigo, turmeric, spirulina, coffee, ash and paprika. Squeeze some lemon acid on your paints and see how the colors change. Add some salt crystals to your painting and see how the paint separates and speckles. While experimenting with color mixing, we’ll use various materials to paint with and paint on, such as fabric. To guide our experiments, we will explore the theme of Op Art.
