These palettes are made from offcuts from a sustainable Indigenous Forestry Operation here on Mantoulin Island, each piece is carefully selected for character and strength. They are cut drilled and sanded by hand.
Some of our favourite palettes with one of our brushes and samples of St Armand handmade paper in a reusable cotton bag, everything you need to paint on the go!
Beam Paints is the result of a multi-generational love of pigment, paint, colour, and innovation. I was raised by my artist parents, Carl Beam and Ann Beam, and was taught from a young age how to harvest hematite pigment in the LaCloche mountain range near our home in M'Chigeeng First Nation on Manitoulin Island. Beam Paints draws on my early educations in Indigenous pigment and expands it to encompass all paint traditions. A focus on high quality pigment content creates sublime artist materials, with plastic free packaging.
