フィリピン・山岳地方の高校でのワークショップ。家族から教わった村の民話を、周辺から採集した土の絵具と木版画で描きました。版木を扉にして折本に仕立て、最後のページに物語を手書きしました。身近な自然素材で絵具が作れることを喜んでくれた山奥の生徒たちが忘れられません。

Folklore picture books with local soil colors

（St. Mary’s High School, Organized by The Japan Foundation, Manila 2013）
This was a workshop at a high school in the mountainous region of the Philippines. Students drew the village folklore learned from a family using collected soil paint from the surrounding area and woodblock print. They hand-lettered the story on the last page after making a folded book with the woodblock as the cover of the book. I cannot forget the students from the distant deep mountains who were rejoiced to learn that they can make paints with familiar natural materials.
