We had a very successful mud workshop yesterday in the Macrobert Arts centre, part of the annual Luminate- Scotland's Creative Ageing Festival.
I must sdmit that I was very worried that nobody would turn up because the day before the event only two people had registered! however I knew several had said they were coming.
We created a scroll and a mass of mud paintings- everyone loved the freedom that mud gave them to be expressive and not to worry about making "correct" marks.
I briefed them with the words:"Anything goes."
And they came up with some surprising results, including a cartoon in homage to our Prime Minister, David Cameron and his "pig" .
