Using plant-based colour for printmaking is a rich and inspiring practice that opens up a fascinating world of colour independent from a reliance on synthetic inks and pastes.

Packed with practical advice and some 300 images, the book splits recipes into sections, depending on which substrate will be used, and introduces techniques for printmakers on both paper and fabric. It explains procedures and processes in detail, conveying the intricacies, complications and unexpected joy inherent in adopting this intriguing practice.
