Natural Paints Episode 2: Greenbrier

- This video walks viewers through the process of how I extract color from the Greenbrier plant using two different methods: dry crushing and fresh juicing. This step by step process shows the resulting product with three different forms of paint. Stick around to see more videos on making 100% natural paints and subscribe to Groovy Greens!

Always amazed by how many of the plants on your channel are edible. Who would have guessed that I've been hiking in a giant salad all these years
It’s pretty crazy my dude
Brava, Ms. Groovy Greens, I've got my Punctilia Lichens steeping for two weeks now (fantastic deep cranberry color!), and will be hunting for some Greenbriar in the coming week. Rock on!
That’s awesome! Hopefully you can find some greenbrier...the colors are lovely! thanks for sticking with me!
'Haven't been out to search the woods and swamps since we last typed at each other...no Greenbriar yet, but I have another question re. the Punctilia: have you ever added this color or any of your other natural tints to a natural glue or adhesive? Projects I'm considering will need to include a glue-lamination of materials and I've had trouble with the glues sealing-out the finish leaving a mottled or unlovely stripey look. A nasty surprise when the piece is nice otherwise. Educational but nasty. And as for sticking with you...You Rock! Better than Mrtha Stewart, even.
I have not yet added pigment to an adhesive, but I feel like if you add powdered, dried pigment to a glue, the color should mix in very well. Perhaps if you tried heating the glue first it may mix better. Just my thoughts :) and thanks!!

Can you make a video about moss?
Yeah for sure! I have actually made a paint out of moss already, but I’ll be sure to talk about moss soon!
