WORKSHOP Natural Inks
Learn to make inks yourself, from plants form our Natural Dye Garden. You’ll learn how to make a lake pigment: the basis for making all inks. We’ll make silkscreen printing ink from it during this deepening workshop. We make 1 ink together, after that you can make more yourself. You can also bring your own plant material.
We’ll experiment and make different inks to print with. Printing with natural inks feels a little bit different than store-bought inks, and sometimes the material you print on also influences the result.
We’ll share all of our tests and everyone will go home with a collection of test prints and ofcourse the basic recipies to continue yourself.
This workshop is taught by visual artist Ilse Versluijs.
