Silver brooch enlarged to show detail |
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 14. Medieval brooches and spoon
I looked through a magnifying glass to draw these - I found beautifully detailed decoration on the round silver brooch. The spoon made an interesting shadow, like a face! I drew them life size - the round one is about 2cms across.
