Ink Alchemy

Updated: Jan 7

For some time a colleague and I have been developing our own inks using natural materials., Inspired by our environment and the process of distilling colour we set about testing and developing ink.


Jason Logan's book Make Ink was a helpful starting place, there is also a film documenting his process and the live nature of natural ink.

INK ALCHEMY: HOW TO MAKE NATURAL INKS

Testing papers help to document colour change over time. Many natural inks are not stable, meaning that the colour will develop over time, some fade some deepen.

Our workshop will guide you through the playful process of making your own inks and provide you with the tools to continue at home.
