Workshops

I love running my workshops! I've been holding them for about twelve years from my home in ‘Studio 9’. These classes are a chance to be guided to create in a fun environment with friends + like minded people. I live in Willoughby, in a beautiful sandstone cottage that is 135 years old. Studio 9 is in the front ‘good room’ + chock a block full of inspiring collected objects + vessels. The classes offer learning of skills + tips, a time to engage in working with your hands + being creative, it’s fun, mindful + very nurturing. I’ve been an art educator in Visual Arts for over thirty years + love sharing my knowledge + techniques. I feel so inspired from a workshop, always learning more for my own art making practice. The classes are limited to only 5 attendees, in an intimate + nurturing space.

Workshops are run mid week as a half day for $80 or a full day for $140. All materials are provided. We start with a freshly baked cake + cuppa tea. We then explore drawing + a few different painting techniques to create cards + tags to take home plus a minor artwork. The idea is to slow down + enjoy the process. The full day workshops offer more time to delve deeper + complete an acrylic canvas painting. We run with a different genres to inspire us, like pears or maybe an abstract landscape. The workshops are totally suitable for all levels of experience. People are often amazed at what they’re taking home, created with their own hands. The day absolutely flies by + people feel creatively nourished.
