Roussillon Ochre Factory

 The painters took an excursion to the quaint town of Roussillon, a short drive from Lacoste, for a tour of the Ochre pigment factory and a workshop. For only 17 Euros we learned about how the pigments were created, the binders they use and a workshop with creating paints from the local pigments, sap binding and egg tempera.
Pigments!!!
