Note from the Host
This would be a two day workshop, 2 hours per day in which we will be teaching about the process of making inks with natural / plant materials. We will also talk about the history of ink making and certain traditional recipes that people used to make ink in the medieval times.
We will use multiple materials to produce various colours and also show you techniques of applying it in your creative practise, stylised writing techniques and how and where you can use this ink. Stamping and block printing paper with ink is also included.1
