    Free download: step-by-step guide to create natural pigments sustainably

    Create Natural Pigments: Domestika's Free Guide to Sustainable Creativity. In recent years, sustainable creative processes have gone from being a trend to a necessity. More and more artists, designers and creators are looking for ways of working that respect the environment, reduce environmental impact and recover a more conscious relationship with materials. In this context, creating natural pigments from vegetable and mineral elements presents itself as a fascinating and accessible alternative. Not only does it make it possible to reduce the use of industrial dyes, but it also connects with ancestral techniques that have accompanied humanity for centuries. For those who want to get started on this path, Domestika offers a free downloadable guide that explains step by step how to obtain natural pigments from home or workshop, becoming a practical tool to explore color from an ecological and creative perspective. Why go for natural pigments? The use of natural pigments brings both environmental and creative benefits. From an ecological point of view, vegetable or mineral dyes stand out for their biodegradability, lower toxicity and renewable origin. Unlike many industrial dyes, they do not generate aggressive chemical residues or pollute the water during their production or application process. But the value of these pigments goes beyond sustainability. Working with materials extracted from roots, leaves, bark or flowers adds an emotional and aesthetic dimension to the creative process. Each color has a history, an origin and a unique variability, making each piece unrepeatable. Furthermore, this practice aligns with the principles of responsible and circular design, where materials are maximized and the process matters as much as the end result. What will you find in this step-by-step guide? The downloadable guide is intended as an intuitive, clear and practical resource, ideal for both beginners and curious creators who want to expand their knowledge. Inside you will find: - A list of accessible materials, such as vegetables, roots, bark and other easy-to-find natural elements. - Detailed instructions for color extraction, explained in a simple and progressive way. - Suggestions for the application of pigments on different supports: textiles, paper, yarns or natural fibers. - Tips for preserving pigments and experimenting with shade variations according to the process, the mordant or the support used. This is a guide designed to experiment without fear, encourage observation and discover how color changes according to the origin and treatment of the material. Creative applications of natural pigments. Natural pigments offer an enormous range of creative possibilities. Some of their most common applications include: - Botanical illustration, where the natural origin of the color reinforces the visual discourse. - Textile printing and dyeing, creating unique pieces with their own identity. - Sustainable product design, from accessories to decorative objects. - Artistic journaling and slow art, where the manual and conscious process is an essential part of the work. These practices are directly connected to the slow art movement, which proposes to create with time, attention and respect for materials, reinforcing the link between art, ecology and culture.
