How to make natural pigments from rocks!
This is part 2 of a three-part series tutorial. In this video, I demonstrate how to make natural pigment from a piece of rock.
There are 5 basic steps:
1. Washing the collected sample
2. Drying
3. Grinding and sifting the rock
4. Washing the pigment
5. Drying and storing the pigment
I hope this video inspires you to make a connection with your local landscape. Because the landscape is not just a source of artistic inspiration, it is a source for art supplies too!
