[Scriptoris] working with natural pigments and parchment

[Jennifer Baker]

Hillary,
I'm in Bryn Gwlad and for the next couple of months travel is going to 
be severely restricted due to a combination of finances and my job.  I 
won't be making it to Gulf Wars unfortunately.

I'm looking at starting with ground pigments first. I  have too many 
projects as it is and don't want to go overboard until I know that I can 
handle painting with natural pigments to begin with.

In Service,
Alicia
