Providing the finest in fowl pigments to chicken shit artists around the world.
The mission of CSA is providing the finest in fowl pigments to chicken shit artists around the world through careful craft, revival, and conservation of ancient pigment cultivating techniques in a modern setting.
Our high quality craftsmen know the shade of chicken droppings can vary widely based on diet, are fairly solid in consistency, and with a sort of fluffy white cap on top. The solid is fecal matter - the digested and partially digested food - while the white part is the urates/uric acid, or what would otherwise be urine in another animal (or human). We take the greatest care in harvesting and processing these materials into pigment.
The origins of the variety in color, well known to those who spend time in the henhouse, comes from the diet. A carefully crafted diet generates the rich color we use in our paints.
The Chicken Shit Artists of America Society is dedicated to building community and supporting the finest in Chicken Shit arts.
