In between projects I run short workshops both at my studio on Conness St in Chiltern, and in various venues across North East Victoria. Workshops are usually drawing based and run for two hours unless otherwise specified. Class sizes are 8 - 12 so each participant has the opportunity for a bit of one-on-one time and will go home with some new drawing skills, ideas and inspiration!
Workshops are usually run during the school holidays. Details and booking info will be updated prior to the school holidays. Click the ‘CURRNT WORKSHOPS’ button to see what’s on. Sign up to the mailing list to be the first to know when workshops are available for booking.
