Half Day Workshop – Anglo-Saxon Patterns
Join us at The Art Haven for a creative half-day workshop inspired by Anglo-Saxon pattern and decoration. Working with simple pencils, pens and watercolour, you’ll explore the repeating motifs, borders and interlacing designs that made early medieval craftsmanship so distinctive.
Beginning with examples drawn from Anglo-Saxon ornament, Claudia Myatt will guide you through ways of constructing patterns step by step, from simple geometric borders to flowing knotwork and stylised brooch designs. You’ll learn how complex-looking patterns can be built from surprisingly simple shapes and repeated forms.
