SUMMARY:Gathering Colour from Place with Tracy Willans

Tracy has taught pigment and ink-making at the unique Lost Trades Fair in central Victoria where craftsmanship\, heritage trades and forgotten crafts are celebrated and skills passed on. \nTracy has been exploring the world of natural art materials since the early 2000s and has a wonderfully deep appreciation of the processes and outcomes which she will share over these two days. The colours in her range are rich and beautiful and reflect her surrounding environment. The skills Tracy shares will give you a wonderful foundation on which to build and explore. \nYou will have the luxury of bringing very little with you\, as Tracy is supplying almost everything you need.
