About Inks of Essex | Sylak Ravenspine (Artist/Facilitator)

Natural ink maker employing materials gathered from the landscape of Essex, England. Demonstrations and workshops run throughout the year, employing traditional practices, many uncovered during the artist's own academic research. Using vintage tools, from his private collection, students will obtain experience through an authentic work practice seldom available on this type of course. Gain hands-on experience using mechanical hand grinders, pestle and mortar, glass mullers, et al, and experiment with mark-making using a variety of improvised tools. Participants get to make their own bottle of ink which they are free to take home with them. Sylak Ravenspine is a self-taught ink maker and art facilitator, supported by a first-class honours degree. Member of both the VAA and AOI.

Once again, another fantastic experience commissioning Sylak for a workshop. Sylak is thorough, and I know all audiences will leave the space having had a wonderful experience - and this event was no exception. All attendees left inspired, with a great understanding of ink making and the history of it. Thank you Sylak - until next time!
