Cabbage: reimagined

February 21

Join for a 3 part creative workshop where we will learn to draw, print and make a simple sauerkraut all from one cabbage! 

Why cabbage?
We all know the humble cabbage, and worldwide the cabbage is eaten in many ways. It’s extremely versatile and one time or another, I’m sure we’ve eaten it!

But how often do we use it for creativity?

Workshop breakdown:
I’ll show you how I draw through the method of continuous line drawing, and we’ll have fun through a range of timed warm-up exercises.

We’ll then make a simple paint using turmeric to make prints of the cabbage half.

Then you will learn how to make sauerkraut using the same cabbage.
