What you'll do

Starting with a simple meditation to relax the body/mind, this online painting class will provide you with the opportunity to create abstract paintings from the natural essence of freedom.

Your teacher will share painting techniques to help you on your way - washes, layers, application with different tools - and all creating some abstract paintings.

It is a relaxed and fun virtual experience where there are no rules. Simply enjoy naturally creating and being together - it will do wonders for your mental health.

If you're looking for creative things to do at home, then abstract painting is the perfect way to experience the joy of life!

Class is for adults but children from seven years upwards are welcome as well.

Knowledge required

No previous experience required and experience is also welcomed.

20yr+ experience in art, 3yr+ in meditation

For over the past 20 years I have been a professional artist in the medium of painting. I studied a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree at University of NSW, College of Fine Arts, Sydney. I worked in the film and photographic industries to then come back full circle to my love of painting. From this love I have exhibited in over 40 solo and group shows in galleries within Australia. Through my work I explore the essence of life – freedom, love, the unknown.

I also support people through one to one counselling sessions; classes, and retreats, to open to the freedom we are. Challenges with feeling separate, circumstances, emotions, the body, stories/thoughts, are all what comes and goes in this vastness of freedom. (for One to One sessions please contact me via my Instagram).

Through Classbento you can discover the classes I offer - Abstract Art, Wellbeing for Adults, Wellbeing for Young Adults, Meditation, and The Joy of Being - Art & Wellbeing for Children. These classes support creativity, expression, stillness, joy, freedom, and more!
