Blood Ink-Real Stabilized human blood. New age technology derived from ancient traditions.
 
North American Indigenous artists employed diverse techniques to utilize  blood in their art, varying across tribes and regions. A process involved separating red blood cells, the pigment source, from plasma, and then mixing these cells with materials like clays, minerals, or plant extracts. This mixture was dried for preservation. The resulting pigment was then combined with binders such as animal fats, plant oils, or glues, chosen based on the desired consistency and application surface. These blood-derived paints were potentially used in various art forms, including body and hide painting, rock art, and the decoration of ceremonial objects, though definitive evidence remains limited due to the perishable nature of organic materials and variations in cultural practices.
