Why did artists stop using natural paints?

In 1859, Edwin Drake drilled the first oil well in Pennsylvania, and the world was changed forever.

New substances that didn’t previously exist in nature were made, like plastics and modern paints. Read More.. naturalearthpaint.com/blogs/blog/historically-why-did-artists-stop-using-natural-paints

If your materials align with your values, your art carries that integrity. People can feel it.

Art can be activism without being loud & sometimes it’s as simple as choosing better materials.

Like plant-based paint instead of petroleum based, or VOC-free paint thinners.

Pigment Storage Tip:

Store pigments in a glass jar with a wide opening for easy refilling. Keep them dry, sealed, and on a high shelf to avoid the reach of children or pets.

Ever mulled your own paint? Mixing pigment into binder changes how you understand pigment load, consistency, and most importantly that paint doesn't need all the extra fillers, bulking agents, or toxic additives.

“As someone with chronic health issues, natural art was an inevitable path for me. I began experimenting with making my own paints. I found it brought a deeper connection to my work, and less stress knowing the materials were totally safe.”

Leah didn’t just want “less toxic.” She wanted artist grade paints she’d feel safe using every single day in a small studio with her kid running around.

This concept shapes everything we make and is why we never sacrifice the safety of our artists or the planet.

Cave paintings lasted 500,000+ years. Why? Mineral pigments. Durability isn’t new technology - it’s ancient knowledge.

The oldest cave painting known today is from El Castillo, in Northern Spain and stands as a symbol of our human evolution.

Did you know Natural Earth Paint operates out of a solar-powered facility in Southern Oregon that also serves as a community drop-off site to reuse plastic packaging materials?

Additionally, all our kit boxes are created in a wind-powered facility. 🌱☀️🎨

Myth: Earth & mineral pigments contain heavy metals.

Reality: Some do—but ours are rigorously third-party tested to meet strict EN71-3 limits (Europe’s toy safety standard for heavy metal migration).

We test all products to ensure they’re among the safest possible.
