Drawing Shells On Loan From The University Museum of Zoology, Cambridge
By Sheila Ceccarelli
Sheila from AccessArt borrowed three boxes of shells from the University Museum of Zoology, for teenagers to draw at the Experimental Drawing Class. The shells came from the wonderful museum loans service that the Cambridge University Museums run for schools and organisations.
The boxes are very carefully laid out and come complete with information cards on each specimen and educational challenges for groups, mainly aimed at primary.

Wonderful drawings – I love the tracing paper too it makes me wonder what could happen next to these drawings! I love the contrast with the last session you did (asemic text) and am certain the two will collide in a really exciting way in the students work at some point.

Fantastic! It’s a rare treat to be able to see the outcome of sessions in which our loans boxes are used. The drawings of shells look brilliant in all the different materials you’ve used. Let us bring back the quill!! (The ethically sourced quill)
