Gaye is offering a 3 day workshop that stimulates the artist in all of us using simple tools but spectacular locations.
She specialises in small groups to ensure not only a fun time, but an educational experience.
Each participant will leave the mountain (hopefully to return soon) with a feeling of serenity, a smile and a framed piece of art they have created.
Fun learning in a one-on-one & group environment..
☑ Creative play & sharing
☑ Critical visualisation
☑ Art practise & development
☑ A take-home framed, personally created piece of art** This workshop does have a small amount of walking however the rainforest walk is a very easy walk of just 2 kms return to Curtis Falls waterfall and just a stroll along Gallery Walk. Age is not a factor and only moderate fitness is required for the rainforest walk.
☑ The Three Day Workshop Price of $325 includes a catered lunch where indicated.
Minimum Numbers:
All experiences need a minimum number of participants to operate at the price listed. The minimum number for the Creative Arts Experience is 6 participants, but it’s a very personal experience with a maximum of 8.Available Dates...

Painting and drawing are my passion and more often than not there is an element of both in my work. I see the humour in our animals so I enjoy giving them a quirky personality as I see befits them.
