Imprints of nature

Printmaking Workshop at the Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences, Downing Street, Cambridge

Local artist-printmaker Susie Turner will show you how to transform simple drawings of fossilised animals or plant life into colourful fine art prints using the techniques of drypoint and chine collé. For further information please follow the link: www.sedgwickmuseum.org

10.30am – 12.30pm, 2pm – 4pm (Both sessions are now fully booked)

'There was such a lot to do on this event - I got a print, but would

have loved more time to refine what I'd done. Very clear instructions by

tutor. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. Excellent - really got you to look

at the fossil that I chose too!'

 'A very informative introduction about a topic totally unfamiliar to me.

Techniques were clearly demonstrated and support was generously given

and appreciated. A full day would have been delightful and therapeutic.

Many thanks.'

 'Amazing - moved at a good pace, really happy with what I've produced -

would come again.'
