Art Classes for Therapy, Fun or Both - Brisbane

These fabulous sessions are for people with some experience, who want to learn more, practice, make friends, explore ideas, ask for feedback, and share their expertise and most of all, set aside TIME to be productive.

Each session allows you to work side by side with like-minded people while doing your own project independently, to avoid creative blocks and lack of motivation.

Splat ‘n’ Chat sessions are designed so we can support and encourage each other! Perfect if you’re a procrastinator!

This is a mixed ability group that is all about helping you create more and enjoy doing it!

I know that whatever level you’re at, it’s often find it difficult to escape your chores and make time for your passion.

You will be amazed at how I can help you to increase your productivity and expand your ideas.

MY STUDIO SPACE IS YOURS so that together we help each other to articulate our ‘Arty thoughts’ and get our projects finished.

If you aim to move you toward exhibiting and selling your work, Splat ‘n’ Chat could be your first step toward making it happen. Imagine the thrill of taking part in local Art Markets or Exhibitions and inviting your friends and family to the Opening Night. You CAN be a real, productive, prolific, successful artist.

Together we will make ‘it’ happen.

BYO all everything you need to work on your project. Bulky items like Easels, water containers, etc, and Tea/coffee are provided.

You are invited to join the Club Yellow event as a non-member for only $15.

Just click the "Find Tickets" link in this event to grab your spot now.

If you haven't attended a Club Yellow event before, be assured that all skill levels are welcome as we have a relaxed chat about all things arty to inspire each other to live our best ‘creative’ life.
It is optional, but we would love you to bring some of your artwork (or photos of what you do) for an informal "show and tell."

This event also includes a 'SWAP MEET' where participants are encouraged to bring any art supplies (new or pre-loved), they no longer want and offer them for FREE to the people attending. There is no obligation to contribute, but you might pick up something useful from the donations. It's a great way to feel less guilty about unwanted purchases when you want to declutter your art space.

As the founder of Studio Yellow, I'm excited to help creatives connect and thrive through these Club Yellow Networking events.

Please note: (Refreshments are available for purchase at great club prices.)

If you ever wanted to paint a canvas-like “real” Artists do, but don’t know where to start, this workshop is your dream come true. Even if you can’t remember ever holding a paintbrush before, you will quickly feel at ease when you’re shown my tried and tested techniques, using acrylic paints and a range of mediums and additives. You will have the opportunity to learn about and experiment with the materials, so you can discover the effects you like the most, before using them to create abstract or semi-abstract artwork on a canvas. You’ll be guided and supported a little or a lot depending on your wishes, with honest advice and feedback.

This workshop teaches traditional and non-traditional ways to apply paint and encourages you to think outside the box. I provide plenty of fuel to develop your confidence and creativity, with actual demonstrations and lots of examples. I’ll guide you through this ‘open-ended’ learning experience, where you have the choice to copy my suggestions or create a painting based on your own ideas (If you already have an idea for your painting, please bring an image with you on the day).

Special offer for Mother’s Day. When you sign up with your Mother (book two adults) your Mum will receive a special gift on the day.

What’s included:

1. A complete painting experience
2. Step by step instructions
3. Organisational ideas and advice on resources you need to set up your home studio
4. Tea/coffee and light snacks

Nature nurtures! So, I have created a workshop to help you appreciate and document the natural world around you. Join me for an afternoon of positivity and gentle tuition to discover for yourself that any time spent drawing what you observe about nature is never time wasted.

Creating a Nature Journal is the perfect way to escape from technology and focus your thoughts on the variety and beauty that is lurking outside (and inside) your home.

It is well known that nature can calm the soul and journalling remind us just take a moment, be observant, and breathe in our surroundings.

Using charcoal, pencils, pens, watercolour, coloured pencils and water-soluble drawing media you will deepen your understanding of ‘HOW TO DRAW’ using ‘nature’ as your inspiration.

This workshop is for you if:

1. you’re looking for a way to press pause reduce stress and practise mindfulness.
2. you’re a complete beginner looking for guidance and instructions to build your drawing confidence.
3. you already have some drawing ability but you need a few hours to focus and enjoy the breathing space this workshop offers.
4. you’re a gardener or you like to travel and explore the great outdoors.
5. you’re ready to make ordinary pencil sketches jump off the page and look more sophisticated by applying a variety of easy techniques.

I’ll show you how to combine your love of nature and your interest in art all in one sketchbook that you will treasure forever. Journalling is a great way to get you back in touch with your creativity and record everything you see, think and feel.

It’s time to experience how the simple act of drawing nature can change any ordinary day into a day of wonder and joy.

By the end of the session, you will be taking home an A5 journal (supplied) filled with drawing samples plus loads of ideas for doing more drawing in the future.

Absolute beginners welcome.

This workshop perfectly complements my “Everything You need to Know about Drawing” and vice versa.
