About Studio Yellow

If only I had more time so I could take on and change the whole education system, and I’m not just talking about schools! If more people gave the Arts, and creativity, a higher priority, I believe the current mental health crisis could be eased. I know we can’t eradicate stress, trauma, or mental illness but we can all learn to find gratitude in the mess of it all! The key to feeling happier is gratitude! Gratitude makes everything enough. Seeing the world through artistic eyes makes a huge difference to every day!!! #ineedmoretime #thearts #educationfirst #happierandhealthier #makechangesnotexcuses

There are so many ways to explore your ideas when you’re into art! It’s so exciting to know that you could be learning for the rest of your life and never know everything! It’s also heartening to know you’ll will never be bored in the future either! Once you discover your artistic side, your life changes! Curiosity and anticipation will fill your life with passion and joy. You’ll discover a purpose beyond work and family responsibilities! Let me be your mentor!!! #letsbegin #changeyourworld #findyourpurpose #papercutting #stencilartist #artmentor

What is the strangest gift you’ve ever received? #giftguides #giftideas #lovelanguage #showyoucare #giftvouchers

If you’re on my mailing list you would’ve received an email last night (Monday) announcing a new date for a workshop, between now and Christmas. It’s very rare for me to schedule a workshop on a Monday but here we are!?

I am amazed that since yesterday’s announcement, the bookings have been coming in and there are actually only three places left!

So if you’re keen to learn about watercolours, jump over to my website and book your spot ASAP. This is definitely the last Watercolour workshop I will be teaching in 2024! Absolute beginners are welcome! #watercolourworkshop #brisbaneartclasses #mondayart #adultartclasses #artclassesbrisbane

It’s my mission to keep spruiking this message because unless you’re aiming to become a professional artist, who makes a living by selling your artwork, it’s ok to copy, trace, scribble, steal ideas, mess things up, and keep your hobby private...I urge you to forget any rules and preconceived ideas you have about ‘right and wrong’ and make Art that is just for YOU!  Taryn get’s it! Here is the feedback she left me with on Saturday:

“I loved the ‘Everything you need to know about Drawing’ workshop. It was good to learn specific techniques and their names as well as easy ways to focus on mindfulness. I now understand I need to focus on consistent drawing to hone my skills and it’s okay not to share my drawings with others. It’s just like journaling for ourselves. I’m feeling more at ease and confident and can’t wait to bring my daughter and my mother with me, next time.” Taryn
