Botanical Painting workshop with Louise Hamill

UNFORTUNATELY WE HAVE HAD TO CANCEL THIS EVENT. PLEASE KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR FUTURE WORKSHOPS AND COURSES AT TILIQUA TILIQUA.

Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced painter, this Monday evening workshop is a perfect way to relax and enjoy some mindful creativity, while exploring the beauty of Australian botanicals in the creative space of the Tiliqua Tiliqua gallery. Don’t miss out on this unique artistic experience!

Local artist Louise Hamill will guide and encourage participants to paint their own original artwork, inspired by Banksia botanical flowers, plants & seed pods. Participants are encouraged to express themselves creatively, and to feel empowered to create an original composition from their own perspective. This workshop is a celebration of individual creativity and is comfortable for beginners through to well practiced painters.

Louise’s workshops are a friendly and safe environment for participants to explore and share their inner creativity, suitable for beginners and advanced painters alike. Everyone has a creative voice and talent, it is a myth that there is a right and wrong way to make an artwork.

All materials, and refreshments are included, with participants taking their painting home at the end.
