A Cookham-based artist is running creative workshops inspired by the excavation of the Anglo Saxon monastery, which restarted last week. Phyllida, who has been a Cookham resident for more than 20 years, said: “Now my awareness is going further back in history and also deeper. I’m not just walking through a field, thinking about how beautiful it is on the surface. I’m walking through it, and thinking about the trenches, and what they found and what else might be there. It’s called ‘Refreshed’”On Tuesdays and Thursdays, Phyllida runs hourly creative mindfulness workshops for £2 and on Saturdays she holds a three-hour drawing and print-making workshop for £10.
