Making art supplies with resources from nature

During the first lockdown, while lacking materials to practice her artistic activities, Lucie Broisin Schoch becomes aware that she is using polluting products.

Necessity is the mother of invention: she realizes that nature is full of materials and colors. From then on, she becomes passionate about making watercolors, brushes, charcoal, pastels, plant-based inks, and wild palettes. This guide offers the opportunity to become self-sufficient in the production of artistic mediums, to learn how to harvest and identify natural resources, and to reconnect with ancient techniques. Beautiful and ecological!
