Boiling up oak galls - the first step in preparing yarn for dyeing with the solar-cooked concoction in the kilner jar.

I dyed a lot of yarn today in a brew concocted from dried rose petals - it has required three days preparation to get to this point and has an unknown outcome. In all probability I will end up with a brown yarn! But I like the witch in the kitchen stuff.

Dried rose petals, alum, oak gall and soda.

When you spend months failing to identify this weird little miniature-apple-looking fruit you keep finding in the dirt, far away from any tree that ought to be making apple-looking fruit.... ...of course there's a gall wasp involved 🤣 So I am working on the Lucky Maggot Ball charms, which are the product of gall fly larvae infesting goldenrod stems. But these are so darn cute, I want to make something out of them too even though I haven't heard of any particular folklore around oak apple galls before. I guess I just need to hang out with one for a while and see what it has to say. #oakgalls #bayouhoodoo #bayouhoodooherbal #witchgarden #seraphinstation #bigluckyhoodoo #rootworkersofinstagram #magicalherbs #foraging #plantidentification #oops https://www.instagram.com/p/Cii-XqXPvom/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’m looking forward to spending a bit more time on this map today. I’m also excited to test out a new ink I made from foraging yesterday morning. Something as simple as picking blackberries has produced a very pretty silvery purple ink. Now I just need to decide what map to use it on 🤷🏻‍♀️ #decisions #newink #makeink #oakgalls #blackink #devonmap #devonshire #oldmaps #osmap #planningmap #countryside #londonartist #lisamarieprice #organicinks #inkonmaps #handmade #artist #harringay #northlondon #artforyourwalls #artcanartist #artcan #rasummer #newartwork (at Harringay) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0IYA-6n6-3/?igshid=im7nslluiuml

It’s been a little while since I’ve posted on here. Mainly because I’ve been hunting for maps for some new commissions. I’ve also been trying out some new inks. I normally work with brighter colours but I’ve been experimenting with a black ink I made a few days ago. I found the recipe from @torontoinkcompany book #makeink It’s made using oak galls and iron, I was gifted them from a very kind parent from her mother’s garden. I’m surprisingly really enjoying the darker ink on this old OS map of Devonshire. What do you think?? Finished photos to follow soon. #newink #makeink #oakgalls #blackink #devonmap #devonshire #oldmaps #osmap #planningmap #countryside #londonartist #lisamarieprice #organicinks #inkonmaps #handmade #artist #harringay #northlondon #artforyourwalls #artcanartist #artcan (at Harringay) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0FhkS1nfh8/?igshid=1ce5lap1ax7v3
