520    The Organic Painter introduces innovative techniques for 
       using non-traditional 'paint' derived from materials like 
       coffee, tea, and alcohol, to encourage freedom and 
       expression! Traditional art supplies will only take you so
       far! Sometimes you need to try something completely new 
       and different. That's where The Organic Painter comes in. 
       With a little guidance, you'll soon be painting with 
       everyday materials you'd never considered as an artistic 
       medium. This inspiring book gives you all the techniques 
       and ideas you'll need to boost your creativity, learn 
       natural paint-making, and be more resourceful with your 
       art materials. Imagine the unique things you'll make when 
       you create natural paints from coffee, tea, and berries. 
       Each project in this guide book comes with instructions on
       how to make the paint, and also includes experiments and 
       explorations for you to try. Plus, a simple painting 
       accompanies each featured material and combines it with 
       other materials or techniques, so you'll never lack 
       inspiration.
