9 Jul (Sun): Inking Ubin Nature - Printmaking workshop for kids and adults

Learn from Artist and Art Educator Jacquelyn Soo how to create a traditional print block painting of the natural landscape of Pulau Ubin; its wonderful environment, animals and greenery that surrounds the island. By creating and drawing your own artwork, you will appreciate the little island’s offering much more!

Younger participants will use collected leaves, flowers and vegetable cuttings from Ubin island as a printing medium. They will learn about the different flora and fauna on the island. Applying non-toxic paints on the cutting and then pressing it onto the paper. Once the paper is peeled off, the image is transferred onto the paper!

Older participants will get a 15cm x 15cm linoleum rubber pad and use craving tools to carve out their image on the pad. Then high quality paints will be applied and paper pressed. Once the paper is peeled off from the plate, the image is transferred onto the paper!
