Adult Workshop: Botanical Casting
18 July, 10am-3.30pm
Join us to create flower plaster reliefs with artist Kaitlin Ferguson, taking inspiration from botanical artworks in the Kettle’s Yard collection and artworks included in our current exhibition Handpicked: Painting Flowers from 1900 to Today.
Participants will start by exploring artworks in the current exhibition, Handpicked, before learning the process of plaster casting flowers and producing your own relief artwork using fresh flowers.
Please note that there is a break for lunch but lunch is not included. All materials are included.
