This was such an incredible and inspiring video! Each step made me want to go exploring for pigments, try something new and follow along. I can’t wait to try. Thank you!!
Some pigments are the same the green for example but depending on the location and time period the pigments change. The book the materials and techniques of medieval painting by David v Thompson has a comprehensive list of you're interested.
i don't think so by technicality since coal is not a mineral and is made from compressed fossils. However it might act the same way in a practical application, being mostly carbon?
I haven't seen that coal have been used as a pigment, but charcoal, soot and burnt bones are all used as pigment. You can buy paints made from those pigments in the nearest art material shop.
Incorrect, plant material can be turned into pain. Plenty of UA-cam videos showing how to do so. Same process, powder the the dried plant material then do everything as you do with minerals. Humans have used plant material to make paint since the dawn of man.
Plant dyes weren't often used in frescos (most of the surviving art of the time) due to the lime stone being too caustic to the dyes. So while they were used for dyeing cloth and other fiber arts they were rarely used in painting until about 70 b.c. when they (the Romans) learned wax painting from the Egyptians.(Though no surviving Roman encaustic art has been found, references were made by pliny the elder in his natural histories).
"She didn't mine the marble to make the pestle & mortar either. Nor turn them on water wheel powered stone cutting lathes, or make the dams & aqueducts for the water resource to turn said lathes...My- what a lazy gal! In my day we would do all that by breakfast! " 🧐 Tacitus Unrealisticus

Amazing info. My marble pedestal and mortar are so dry at the bottom. I bought it like this, so hoping adding water helps!!! Great info 👏👏👏👏
My daughter loves making her own charcoal pigment. It’s nice and easy if you’d like to include a child- much easier on the hands!
😂 this proves that using mineral pigments is not a necesity, charcoal is totally organic. But yes, I understand what she was trying to say.
Excellent!
Thank you very much. OLÉ!!!

@@michaelah1001do plant pigments last when they are painted with or do they rapidly fade?
I wish you would show all the steps, getting the pigment separated from large particles and water is not easy or obvious.
She cheated. She didn't put the coloured earth into the motar, it was already there!!
