About this site

The Manual of Wild Colour is an independent publication launched in March 2026 by Emma Hogbin and Jon Palmer. The goal of the site is to help readers create their own artist-grade colours from what they can find in the environment. The content is being developed in the open, and one day we hope it will also be a print publication.

The Manual of Wild Colour is part of the Princetown Press family of offerings.
