Beam Paint By Numbers Butterflies - Paint included!

By Beam Paints - based in M'Chigeeng First Nation on Manitoulin Island / Mnidoo Mnising

Lightfast pigments, tree sap, gum arabic, and Manitoulin honey blend together to create a handmade  saturated colour that is a joy to paint with. From thick stripes to fine washes and details, quality is evident in every stroke. 

These charming 7 by 5 greeting cards have a lightly drawn butterfly illustration which you can paint with the attached Beam Paints watercolour dots.  All you need is some water and a paintbrush! 

Options are:

• Monarch
• Swallowtail
• Morning Cloak

The detailed instruction sheets lets you know what area to paint in what colour. Once your work of art is complete, simply cut the paint strip from the bottom, write inside the card and gift it to someone special.  They are blank inside and an envelope is included!

Beam Paints is the result of a multi-generational love of pigment, paint, colour, and innovation. Anong Beam was taught from a young age how to harvest hematite pigment in the LaCloche mountain range near her home in M'Chigeeng First Nation on Manitoulin Island. Beam Paints draws on her early educations in Indigenous pigment and expands it to encompass all paint traditions.
