Spend an afternoon cutting, sticking and layering different textile materials to make a selection of greetings cards. Emmeline Webb, mixed media artist will demonstrate how you can recreate a landscape scene or simple floral design by arranging and building up the materials. You will be able to make up five cards with your own unique designs.  
  • Tutor: Emmeline Webb returned to art education as a mature student, gaining a BA (hons) in Illustration from Cambridge School of Art in 2008. Since then, she has been encouraging others to find their artistic voice, and benefit from the restorative effects of making art, and has 15 years of experience teaching art workshops to teen and adults. Emmeline's workshops are suited to all abilities, with an emphasis on relaxion, exploration of art materials and ultimately fun.
