Landon Marchant - making pigments

a story of place

I use modern and thirteenth-century techniques to create pigments from foraged, found, and repurposed materials.

a note on pricing

I create art out of love and curiosity, using skills I learned while working in the trades. Originals are difficult for me to price, especially those where the paint itself has been made by hand using materials I've gathered.

Please make an offer you can afford and believe reflects the value you will receive from owning my work. If you prefer square-inch pricing as a reference, prior sales of original pieces place my sq/inch price between $1.89 and $5.71. I have accepted payment plans in the past. Shipping is calculated at time of purchase.
