Art Workshops Perth

Have you ever gazed longingly at a beautiful work of abstract art, and thought, “I wish I could do that, but I don’t don’t have a clue how!” Do you yearn to express your creativity? Can’t go to weekly classes because you’re at work? Yes, yes and yes? Well then, things may be about to change !

The ABSOLUTE BEGINNER: You’re the one who’s always been curious about your artistic side, but you don’t know where to begin. Or never had the time to learn. Or perhaps its all seemed too overwhelming … maybe you feel you’ve left it too late. Hey, I designed this workshop for YOU! In one jam-packed, fun day, you’ll lose that fear of the unknown. And learn absolutely heaps. I’ve got you covered!

The NOW-AND-THEN-DABBLER: So you paint a little. But you love it a lot! And you dream of one day learning how to do it all ‘properly’. Now’s your chance. My seven step process will give you some clear structure and my intensive class will give you SO much content in just one day. You’ll be painting with more purpose and passion in no time!

This painting class a ONE DAY intensive, where you learn my unique seven step process to create beautiful, textured abstract paintings from scratch – even if the last time you painted, your mum said, “that’s lovely, darling!” and popped it on the fridge :)

The day is packed with content, insanely busy (but fun!). You will be guided along one of the many pathways to creating art, and totally surprise yourself at just how much you learn in just ONE day. (And best of all – no need to buy anything – just rock up with nothing but your lunch, as ALL materials, along with extensive notes, are provided).

Working with acrylics paints, texture and mediums, I will personally guide you, step-by-step, through the very same process that I use to create my own art (you can see my work here). We start with the absolute basics and progress steadily on to using texture and colour, making effective compositions, and how to finish paintings. I demonstrate each and every step in detail.

And have you suspected there’s more to making art than just learning ‘techniques’? You’re right! During this special workshop, I share those ‘secrets’ too. We have a laugh, you have a go, and before long, your creativity is flowing!

“I came to your workshop and found peace, and dare I say it joy. There is much kindness and love in you and I thank you for sharing that with a room full of strangers.

You are so well organized, I want to thank you again for all your preparatory work, the takeaway notes, all the equipment you supplied and your humorous demonstrations and comments. We covered so much in one day I can’t believe it!” – Andrew McDonald, Building Illustrator
