THREE SESSIONS:

October 7, 7:30-9:30 pm October 14, 7:30-9:30 pm October 21, 7:30-9:30 pm

In this three-part workshop, learn the art of DIY paint-making from foraged pigments and create a work of art with your new paints.

Course Description

In this practical workshop, join Colombia-based artists Hayley Dayis and Alexander Fals to create your own paint using foraged mineral pigments anywhere in the world and take that paint to the canvas! Over the course of three weeks, we’ll explore the origin of color, mineral pigments, and ecologically sustainable art forms. Students will be guided on how to respectfully harvest colors from nature, and gain a greater appreciation for and knowledge of where color originates and the cultural context and history of painting with pigments. By the end of our time together, you’ll walk away with an original painting using the DIY paint you sourced during the course and a deeper understanding of the positive ecological and creative impacts of natural pigment painting on our modern day communities.  

We will be on Main Street in Naples, Alexander’s hometown, for two days with all of our latest prints and some select originals! Naples is a gorgeous town in the Finger Lakes, and this is the biggest event they put on all year! Come check out all that Naples has to offer.

We are excited to present the Fourth Annual Ngoni Workshop at Gourdlandia in Ithaca, NY! If you are someone who loves instruments, working with your hands and learning new skills, this workshop is for you!

This is our second year attending the renowned Clothesline Festival on the Memorial Art Gallery’s beautiful grounds, and we are looking forward to it! We have a lot of new work to share this year. This is the 68th anniversary of this event, and it just gets better every year. Make sure to come out and enjoy this event, and all it has to offer! We’ll see you there.

Opening Night from 6-9 pm on First Friday September 6th.

This show will be the debut of Dayis’ 15-piece series of natural Colombian pigment paintings titled “Colombian Riches”. This series is dedicated to shedding light on various aspects of Colombia's history, which are inevitably inter-connected with the karmic cycle and fate of people all around the globe. Each piece focuses on one of the country's natural resources (such as flowers, bananas, or coca) and depicts the duality of extracting those resources from the land--the joy and nourishment that they often provide, and also the destruction and violence that their commercialization has incited.

This is a three-day showcase of some of the country's most talented artists, craftspeople and entertainers centered in Downtown Syracuse. We are thrilled to be vending at this festival for our first time!

Grassroots in Trumansburg, NY is one of our all-time favorite events of the year. This year we will be showcasing and selling our artwork in the Art Barn, plus live painting with natural pigments on both Friday and Saturday!

Opening Night Thursday July 11, 5-7 pm

Alexander has been attending this festival since he was a baby, and it was Hayley’s first ever music festival experience at 19 years old. If you have never attended, this is not one to miss. A magical weekend in the woods full of incredible Americana music, top quality vendors, dance, friends, drumming, camping, and great food.
