PAPER-MAKING, HOME-MADE PIGMENTS & BINDERS, COLLAGE

ECO-ART HOLIDAY: DISCOVER THE FUN OF IMAGE CREATION USING ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY METHODS AND MATERIALS

FANTASTIC FOOD - AMAZING ACCOMMODATION - LOVELY LOCATION

   

Learn how to make paper, glue, pigments, binders and create your own 100% natural or recycled collage as well as have a lovely holiday in central france.

Our Eco-Art holidays in France include making your own paper (from recycled paper and plant fibres) plus creating your own pigments from natural sources, making binders and glues and finally creating collages using your natural materials.

By the end of your holiday you will have plenty of ideas for creating art in an environmentally friendly way, getting a little closer to nature for inspiration and its free gifts. No need for expensive paints and paper to make great paintings and images.

It does not matter if you are a beginner or an accomplished artist. We provide a great place to work in and wonderful accommodation for you to relax and feel at home in. We provide delicious food (we cater for many diets) much of it made from home-grown produce. We provide a little "French experience" by visiting a market and maybe a local fete.

We will:

  • Make our own paper from recycled materials and also from plant fibres collected from around the garden and countryside.

  • Make glue and binders from natural resources.

  • Grind pigments from rocks and other materials found around the premises (or whilst out sightseeing)

  • Make charcoal sticks and pastels.

  • Make natural paints.

  • Create a collage or two, maybe make greetings cards or similar - whatever your imagination can come up with.
