Colour means a lot to us.

Wild grape ink this morning. An exciting colour to layer onto papers: season, substrate, process in combo make for colour as adventure. Waiting at @westendstudiotour, June 4 and 5, 2022

Indigo ink today. A recipe adapted from two sources: Catherine Ellis, co-author of The Art and Science of Natural Dyes and Jodi Gear @kjodigear. Generous colour via two generous artists. ready for the spring @westendstudiotour

Vine black ink made from vines "cut on the waning moon". How can anyone resist buying such a romantically-designated ink? Check out @selectfineartmaterials (online sales only for now) for a selection of UK art materials company by Wallace Seymour, handmade paints and inks. @wallace_seymour

Art around me on a cool sunny morning - ceramics, ecoprinted wool, Belgian moquette tapestry, slate and forged metals, leather and aluminum, IKEA velvet...The Guitarist by Shlomo (slate, copper, found cutlery) also his table: glass and forged iron...the chairs, the tapestry and the handwoven wool blanket were thrifted...unknown designers but treasured by me...my fave raku-fired turquoise pot is by potter Sheila Williams of Ottawa

Buckthorn greens today #makeink #inkmaking @westendstudiotour

Buckthorn yellow swiped with indigo; too much sofa ash/ alum made a syrupy-lakey thing happen - buckthorn brown goo in the filters that will end up a kindof “heavy body” dye paste…Still really yellow.

Making inks: this buckthorn brew wants to be yellow...and what a yellow it is! Chartreuse all the way

West End Studio Tour - Spring 2022 version! June 4 and 5. Outdoor, in-person. 11 a.m. - 5 p.m.

Experimenting with silk screens. Instructed by the talented, knowledgeable and charming workshop team at Possible Worlds, Ottawa. Buckthorn leaf print on natural inks: off-centre print is owing to my inexpert pass of the squeegee. That’s what learning is about, folks!!
