Making Elastic Band Sketchbooks with Pupils at Philip Southcote School

By Andrea Butler

This session was part of a full day workshop Animal Sculpture and Collage with Students at Philip Southcote School, Surrey.  The students had spent the morning drawing and making and in the afternoon they gathered materials from the selection that we had brought and made themselves an elastic band sketchbook.  The theme of identity which we had been exploring throughout the day was carried through into the personalisation of their sketchbooks.
