Wild Brushes - Brush-Making Workshop

Make and paint with your very own 'wild brush'; a paintbrush made from natural materials.

Working with our Artist in Residence Amanda Warren, use natural materials to make your own unique paintbrush, a souvenir of your visit to Sutton Hoo and a great tool for creative and expressive mark-making.  

Using simple techniques and found materials such as sticks, feathers and vegetation, your brush will be a thing of beauty in itself! Give it a trial run using inks to record the special landscape and atmosphere of this beautiful location. All materials will be provided.
