Transmutation

Milk Paint Painting

Created by Cassandra Tondro
Sustainability is an important part of the artist's practice, and this painting was created using natural earth pigments applied in layers to raw cotton canvas. The pigments that Tondro uses are minerals found in the earth -- burnt sienna, raw umber, yellow ochre, orange ochre, red iron oxide, and graphite gray. She uses diluted soy milk to bind the powdered pigments to the canvas and a finishing varnish to protect the piece.

The "Earth Wisdom" paintings are soft, subtle, intricate works of art with a vibrant, expansive energy. The muted color palette grounds them to the earth, and they're rooted in healing energy. Signed by the artist on the back. Image wraps around sides, wired, and ready to hang.
