Natural pigments: Corn and Mexican marigold
This event is full, but you can still join the waitlist.
Bilingual! In this class, we will explore the colors of corn and Mexican marigold, both native Mexican plants cultivated in Portland, which adorn and honor our transcended ancestors. We will learn about their use in art and how to create beautiful, eco-friendly artworks rooted in the worldview of ancient Mexico regarding death and its relationship with the earth.
