COLOUR RITUALS
A seasonal practice space for working with colour intentionally.
COLOUR RITUALS
Online
Monthly — guided by the lunar cycle
Join the Colour Rituals online community for free to receive a different seasonal plant colour ritual each lunation.
An invitation to journey with a different dye plant every month, with guidance from natural dyer, artist and sensory herbalist Babs Behan.
Rooted in seasonality, creativity, ritual, ecology, and relationship with the living world, Colour Rituals offers slower and more intentional ways of working with plants and colour through dye, ink, paint, cloth, and creative practice.
Each month unfolds in two parts:
🌑 New Moon
An introduction to the month’s plant, alongside a materials and equipment list, giving two weeks to gather, prepare, observe, and begin drawing into relationship with the plant and the season.
🌕 Full Moon
Receive a creative practice in your inbox — including a natural colour recipe and ritual — working with the pigment of the plant as a dye, ink, paint, or other colour process.
Inside the free seasonal layer, you’ll receive:
Monthly New Moon + Full Moon Colour Rituals
Seasonal letters and reflections
Natural colour recipes and practices
Plant studies and botanical explorations
Creative prompts and process notes
Occasional behind-the-scenes writings and offerings from the studio
Over time, deeper layers of Colour Rituals will also unfold for those wishing to journey further into the science, chemistry, herbalism, alchemy, symbolism, and ceremonial aspects of intentional colour practice.
For now, you’re warmly invited to begin here.
