Botanical ink making workshop with Clare Taylor

Join inspirational artist Clare Taylor as you create your own range of botanical inks derived from food waste and locally sourced plant matter.

Discover nature’s colour palette on your doorstep and incorporate it into your art practice. This is an introduction to techniques for making your very own natural inks including preparation, modification (fun chemical colour changing reactions!) and preserving processes.

Participants will come away with at least two inks created on the workshop plus further recipes to explore at their leisure.

This workshop is for participants aged 12 years and above. Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
