  "description": "### **Earth & Minerals: Pigments & Paints**\n\nPart 4 in a series of 4 evening Colour Lab workshops\n\nLearn how to make watercolour paints using earth pigments made from Devon's clays, minerals and rocks. \n\n![](https://r2.dandelion.events/2026/10/02/11/15/05/bda07615-f9ec-4caa-b6c6-dd922c1121fd/earth1.JPG)\n\nIn this workshop, you'll learn how to grind, sieve and mix earth pigments into watercolour paints, using a process that can then be adapted for making oil, acrylic or gouache paints at home. We'll look at the rich palette of colour that can be found in the Devon landscape, from coast to coast, and explore ways of working with these pigments in order to dialgoue with the land.\n\nYou'll receive an introduction into working safely with earth and minerals, and develop an understanding of how they interact with plant- and metal-based colours.\n\n**You'll go home with:** your own mineral-based watercolour pan(s), some pigment to process at home and a collaborative drawing from the landscape.\n\nOpen to anyone aged 18+. This workshop works with materials made in workshops 1 and 2, but is open to those joining for the first time - no previous experience required. Materials and refreshments provided.\n\n![](https://r2.dandelion.events/2026/10/02/11/15/29/30ef3e6d-3edb-423f-9837-0bfadadd096b/earth2.JPG)\n\n* * *\n\nThis workshop is Part 4 in a series of 4 evening Colour Lab workshops, running the second Wednesday of each month, November–February, 6-8:30pm, at School Farm, Totnes.\n\nYou can come to any of the sessions as a stand-alone workshop or join all 4 for a full course in learning how to make inks, paints, pigments & paper dyes from plants, minerals & waste products.\n\nFull programme:\n\n1. **Flowers & Food:** Ink Making & Instant Colour, Wednesday 11th November\n2. **Trees & Metals:** Mordants & Modifiers, Wednesday 9th December\n3. **Paper & Prints:** Paper dyeing & Eco-printing, Wednesday 13th January\n4. **Earth & Minerals:** Pigments & Paints, Wednesday 10th February\n\n**£45 per workshop / £160 for all 4** (select the ‘All 4’ ticket on purchase)\n\n![](https://r2.dandelion.events/2026/10/02/11/16/01/a596ec0f-4957-4003-a643-4dce1ff10516/earth3.JPG)",
