Nature’s Palette

Laura Leigh Lanchantin

Learn the ancient craft of grinding pigments from local minerals and clay.

Laura will also discuss basic geology, the history of pigments, safety procedures, and areas of the Appalachian and Green Mountains where she collects her stones.

Each student will have the opportunity to create a small watercolor palette to take home. The end of the workshop will feature an open-paint session with pigments, charcoal, and watercolor mediums.
