Soil Paints

  • 4th street studios 315 South 4th Street Laramie, WY, 82070 United States (map)

Join us as we explore the craft of traditional watercolor paint-making using soils collected throughout the region!

The workshop will involve hand crafting 6 watercolor paints using Wyoming soils collected and refined by Karen. We will mull, mix and coat the fine earth fraction to unlock the colors of the soil. Each participant will take home a half pan of all 6 colors.

Bethann will the instruct the group in basic water color techniques as we attempt to use the new paints to create works of art.

*Led by soil scientist Karen Vaughan and Bethann Garramon Merkle.

*Workshop caps at 12 students. $35 per student, all materials included. BYOB! (Cash must be dropped off at least 24 hours in advance of class to reserve your spot.)
