Handcrafted Watercolours in Plastic Free Packaging, Influenced by Indigenous Paint Tradition with Anong Migwans Beam from Beam Paints
Ojibwe artist Anong Migwans Beam from Beam Paints handcrafts small batch watercolour paint stones packaged in sustainable materials. In this episode we learn how Anong’s father taught her to harvest pigment near her home in M'Chigeeng First Nation on Manitoulin island, how she's been inspired by her artist parents and indigenous paint traditions, we explore her deep connection to colours, and discover why she's made the choice to use beeswax, cotton remnants, cedar and birch offcuts and other sustainable materials over plastics for her packaging.
