As Artist in Residence at Lynn Museum in Norfolk, I'm drawing artefacts from their archaeology collection which are not normally on show. Each week the curators present me with a mystery artefact and, in a limited time (2-3 hours) I create a drawing from observation choosing appropriate drawing media. It's become a meditative practice and a fascinating connection with local heritage. Rosie Redzia

Week 8 Wattle and Daub
This piece of old wattle and daub was fascinating to draw and to spend time studying - you can see the thumb prints of the builder as he moulded the clay and dung around the reeds and animal hair to create this ancient building material.
