Details

Guided by professional artist Gina Chapman, students are encouraged to experiment, problem-solve, and express their individual artistic perspective in both single-session activities and multi-week projects that support sustained focus and richer creative outcomes. Lessons incorporate art theory and introduce students to a diverse range of historical and contemporary artists as they develop advanced colour and materials skills, refine drawing techniques by studying proportion, perspective, shading, and composition using charcoal, pencil, and mixed media; and create three-dimensional artworks with sculptural processes including clay work, felt-making, and other tactile materials.

If you would like to enrol, please complete the form above and a staff member will be in touch. You can also drop-in or call us on 6293 1443.
