Eben and I were super excited to receive a set of Glob Natural Paints to review. Glob is a natural art supply company with a focus on sustainability, using vibrant pigments that have been used throughout the ages by many different cultures. Glob’s pigments are all natural, biodegradable and come in a beautiful collection of colors; Lemon Verbena (yellow), Blueberry (blue), Pomegranate (red), and Basil (green). We couldn’t wait to get our hands dirty, and after taking a nature walk around our neighborhood, we headed home with a small collection of leaves and the perfect project idea. Since Glob paints are made using flowers, vegetables, fruit and spices, with natural food grade ingredients and organic extracts, we decided that leaf prints would be the perfect nature inspired project to try with our Glob paints. Check out my step-by-step instructions on how we used this fantastic new art medium to create a nature inspired art gallery for above Eben’s desk.
