Family Art Workshop: Autumnal Trees in Print

Inspired by Lucian Freud’s drawings and prints of trees including some drawings that he made when he was a child, we will explore drawing and monoprinting. A monoprint is a one-off print which involves drawing on the back of paper whilst pressing onto ink.  

We will look at and feel the texture of some of the trees outside at the Garden Museum and collect some autumnal leaves which we can make some rubbings and prints from.  

We will then experiment with monoprinting using a roller and ink. Be prepared to get a bit messy. Aprons will be provided but please don’t wear best clothes!
