​This 2 day workshop will introduce participants to some simple ink-making processes using plant material.  We'll forage for colour and drawing tools in the local environment, and make some inks together - evaporated inks, raw inks and alcohol inks. 

Participants will then have the opportunity to experiment with their homemade inks, in combination with household modifiers such as salt, bicarb, vinegar and citric acid to create some dramatic effects and colour shifts.

The second day will focus on mark making and drawing with our inks, taking inspiration from the gardens at Cockenzie House!
