Jamie Young - Natural Dye Educator on Instagram: "Comment PAINT & I’ll send you ✨free✨ detailed tutorials for making lake pigments & shelf-stable watercolors with plants.🫶🏼🌿 This color was made from onion skins and marigolds that had both been previously used for dyeing fabric. After dyeing, I saved the plant material for a second sunny color extraction. ☀️ To make shelf-stable plant colored watercolors, a natural dye must be turned into an insoluble pigment. 🌈 The process involves flocculating dye with an inert binder (usually alum) and is most commonly referred to as “laking”. Lake pigments are an excellent way to reduce our waste stream by giving new life to old dye baths and can be used for a variety of artistic endeavors such as making watercolors, crayons, pastels, paints, ch Painting With Natural Dyes, Natural Paint Making, Natural Pigments Diy, Watercolor On Fabric, Making Lake Pigments, Paint Binders, How To Plant Dye Fabric, Lake Pigments, Nature Dye Fabric

Strata Ink on Instagram: "Sappanwood or Eastern Brazilwood makes such beautiful lake pigments. Both of these were made from a workshop’s left over dye bath. The first one was made with alum and soda ash. The second one is an exhaust (made from the left over liquid from the first one) made with alum and calcium carbonate. You can see and hear the difference. The pigments are now shelf stable and can be used to make paints, pastels, or almost any other artist material. #lakepigment #lakepigments #earthpigment #naturaldying #homemadepaint #homemadewatercolor #sappanwood #artistmaterials #handmadepigments #artsupply #leftoverdye" Lake Pigments, Homemade Watercolors, Homemade Paint, Soda Ash, Earth Pigments, Natural Dyeing, Artist Materials, Calcium Carbonate, How To Make Paint
