We have a project in science. We need to draw based on a theme. The challenge here is we are not allowed to use crayons, color pencils, oil pastels and other man made coloring materials. We need to get colors from natural stuff. For example, green color from green leaves, black from charcoal. I need suggestions for other natural stuff that can produce other colors like yellow, blue, red, violet, orange,brown. Can't use processed things like ketchup. Since it's like red orange...we can't use it because it was already processed. Help please...

Blue from blueberries; purple from blackberries; red from raspberries or strawberries or cherries. Yellow from marigolds if you can find them, or chrysanthemums. Orange from yellow and red mixed. Green from leaves. Yellow can also be gotten from flower pollen (saffron, for instance is flower pollen, albeit a little pricey - you can find it with the spices).

Good luck!
