Moths in a human suit (they/them) @lycomorpha.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Also a reminder that: 1. Chemical-free paints do not exist. Yellow ochre is made from chemicals. So is the tree sap in my binder! The water in it is a chemical. 2. 'Natural' is not a synonym for 'good', 'safe', 'fair-trade' or 'ethical'. I use human-made synthetic pigments too.Moths in a human suit (they/them)@lycomorpha.bsky.socialPeriodic reminder: Chemical-free paints do not exist. Watercolour paints like mine (or anyone else's) are made with chemicals like water! And gum arabic!! And pigments! Even naturally occurring pigments like this ochre are coloured by iron oxide chemicals. Thank you for your time. 2221
shademar @shademar.bsky.social · 23/08/2026You have some really lovely sets and gradients! I like the subtle earthy feel of every color! 010
Bob McIntosh @scotfot.bsky.social · 23/08/2026There is an old publication called "Wartime pamphlet no. 21. - Ochres, umbers and other natural earth pigments of England and Wales By R.W. Pocock 1942.
