About this event
Decorative Spine Sketchbook Workshop with Susie Wilson
This one day workshop will teach students how to make a sketchbook with a decorative sewn spine and fold out pages. The beauty of this book structure is the sewing allows the book to be filled after making and it opens flat for ease of drawing and sketching. Cover papers will be made using printmaking techniques inspired by the building of Riddle’s Court. No experience is needed.
Susie Wilson graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in 1992 with a BA (Hons) Degree and PostGrad in Drawing and Printmaking. She has taught Printmaking and Artist Books at Edinburgh College of Art for ten years and also teaches in adult education and schools in and around Edinburgh.
Please note: no lunch will be provided; participants may bring their own lunch or visit Scotts Kitchen downstairs in Riddle's Court, or other local cafes.
Every ticket sold helps support the work of the Patrick Geddes Centre at Riddle’s Court, and Scottish Historic Buildings Trust.
