Coloring book – Natural paint, ink by Jill de Vries

€ 49.00

This book is about colors and materials. It is a book full of information and inspiration, to read and do. I show you from start to finish how to make ink and also lacquer pigments from plants and their dyes. A craft that is hardly practiced anywhere anymore! I show where to collect earth pigments and how to filter them. I also tell you how to make paint, pastels and wax crayons from these natural pigments. I tell the history of different painting techniques.

Ingredients of binders are discussed and we make handmade paper. As a bonus, I'll show you how to make beautiful eco-prints on paper!

This book will be around 240 pages thick. It will have a scratch-resistant full-colour cover with a linen spine and reading ribbon. It is full of beautiful pictures and step-by-step chapters so that you can easily follow the steps. It is not only a book full of information, but above all a unique item. Will you join us on this creative and nature-friendly journey?

Description

The Coloring Book by Jill de Vries was created after 5 years of intensive study in the field of natural dyeing and related techniques. In and around her studio in Almere, Jill has built up the knowledge and skills to grow and process her own dyes. Subsequently, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of her studio, she set up a crowdfunding campaign to write and publish this book!

We are very happy that Jill is sharing her expertise in this beautiful book with people and recommend this book to anyone who wants to work with natural dyeing from the roots in the ground to the end result.

    Beautiful design. Good work description and nice, detailed photos. A complement to the already purchased books on eco printing and eco dyeing. Highly recommended.
