Extract pigment straight from nature. Young artists will extract inks from real flowers and plants to create their own natural watercolor palette.

Then it will be time to experiment with baking soda and lemon juice to explore how these ingredients shift and enhance the colors. Kids will learn the basics of botanical illustration and bring their drawings to life by adding pops of color with their custom plant paints.

Please note this class for children with or without their adult companions.
