Free Daily Demonstrations at the Colour Makers House

 The six-year-old was so engaged, and the 13-year-old daughter enjoyed it; it was such a fascinating afternoon. We were all fascinated.

 Thank you, Mark, for a fantastic morning of learning and experimenting with how to make beautiful pigments. You truly inspired us, and we can’t wait to start our watercolour creative journey with your marvellous pigments.

 Couldn't have been more impressed with our tailored pigment workshop from Mark. Enthralled from start to finish. Didn't want to leave. A natural teacher and such a welcoming guy. I highly recommend visiting the Colour Makers House 

- Bri, Manchester. 

This was an excellent workshop led by Mark, who is passionate about Colour and pigment and effortlessly conveys that passion. 

Mark himself is hugely easygoing, friendly, and a breeze to listen to, making it easy to take it all in. Brilliant.

 I so enjoyed my day, I learned so much about the history, alchemy and processes involved in making pigments from local rocks and earth. Your step-by-step instructions through art practices will spur me on. I'd highly recommend one of your workshops and a visit to your shop to anyone curious about the colour around all around us.

 The visit to the colour maker's house in Appleby offered the opportunity to discover something new (the creation of foraged pigment). It was time well spent in the company of an interesting maker. We also enjoyed looking around the house and learning about its history.
