About Studio Yellow

Studio Yellow is the place to learn how to make art. Whatever your previous Art experience, I can teach you how to use lots of different art materials and guide you through exciting and achievable activities to open your heart to the wonderful world of creativity.

I understand that making art is a great way to maintain good mental health and connect with the community. I know making art is therapeutic and I know art-making can be a soothing hobby and/or a new source of income.

When you do things that bring value and enjoyment to your life, it benefits everyone around you as well.

Don’t wait for ‘one day’. Change the way you think and feel about your life by booking a class with me today.

The Studio is located in Manly West, Brisbane.

The act of drawing is an easily accessible way to learn how to focus and be fully present. In this crazy world of constant distractions and multitasking, drawing teaches us how to be ‘mindful’. But, when you have a critical voice telling you how terrible you, are it’s easy to give up! 

I have one place left in my drawing workshop, this weekend. #drawingforbeginners This is your opportunity to learn how to draw mindfully, but you will also learn how to incorporate the traditional elements of art and other techniques, so that you start to SEE real results. Drawing feels so much more peaceful and relaxing when you have a repertoire of hints and tips to refer back to! So what are you waiting for? I called the workshop ‘Everything you need to know about Drawing’ for a reason!!! See you there! (book via my website or send me a private message with your questions!!) #learntodraw #relaxationtechniques #drawingclass #arttherapy
I love art, but I also love dancing! I’m a member of a very social dance club @cerocclubbrisbane and recently a group from of us performed a short Routine to entertain our fellow club members!! Dancing is so good for me! I went to my first dance lesson approximately a year after my husband passed away. Like art, it proved to be a great way to learn mindfulness and rest my weary brain when it was overloaded with emotions and worries. Whenever I am dancing my ‘To Do’ list evaporates and all I think about it following the lead and listening to the music. All these years later I’m still dancing every week. It ticks all the boxes…social interaction, physical fitness, neuroplasticity, fun, laughter and when performing in front of a crowd of over 100 people wearing a hot pink unitard and an LED tulle skirt, it encourages me to extend my comfort zone! 😬😂😂 When did you last spend a few hours on a dance floor working up a sweat??? 💃💃💃 Like art classes, maybe it’s time that you try it out to see how it works for you!! #mentalhealthmatters #gettingoutofmycomfortzone #dancinggirl #hobbiesareimportant
When I create, I not only nurture my soul but I also become a better person for those around me. I believe this ripple effect can change the world...eventually! 

Want to know more? Contact me to arrange a quick chat about how a hobby like art can change your life for the better. Or…grab one of the last places in my ‘learn to draw’ workshop for beginners on Saturday afternoon, November 9th. 

It’s called EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT DRAWING and it’s the perfect opportunity to hear all my hints and tips AND ask 100s of questions! You’re sure to feel more confident about sketching by the end of the session PLUS I give you a workbook and drawing journal to keep, so you have support when you’re practicing at home afterwards. BOOK NOW via my website! Remember, in-person classes give you instant access to feedback for real progress!!

🖌️✨Art journaling is a fantastic way to boost your mental health! It combines creativity and self-expression, providing a safe space to explore your thoughts and emotions. Through colours, drawings, and words, you can process experiences, relieve stress, and gain clarity. It’s like a therapeutic journey on paper, helping you connect with your inner self and find balance. Art helped me through some of the most difficult years of my life, after my husband died by suicide. As an art teacher it was natural for me to use art as a way of processing my emotions. Give it a try and watch your mental well-being flourish! 🌈💖 … and if you need some guidance or support on the ‘how to’, consider joining my Art Mentoring Program. The next 4-week module starts next week. Message me if you have any questions! #ArtJournaling #MentalHealth #CreativeHealing #artmentoringprogram #selfpreservation
When people take the time to pass on feedback it inspires me to keep going…#onwards and upwards ⬆️, so when this message arrived in my inbox it gave me such a boost (Bec gave me permission to share her feelings with you in because, like me, she hopes her experience will inspire others to take some art classes, to get the support needed to ‘shift some stuff’!!!).

“Hi Nat, I just wanted to thank you for today.  I always enjoy every session of the Art Mentoring Program, but hearing you share your personal story today about letting go, etc really helped me to just relax, be in the moment, and not think too ‘logically’ about the accuracy of my art.

I loved the process and was really surprised , in a good way, with the outcome.

I’ve found myself giving ‘loose sketching’ a go in my garden and enjoyed the process immensely. 

Too often we forget to share and thank the people who help us to shift some of our “stuff”. So thank you 🙏🏼💓🖌️🎨🖼️🎨 I know I’m getting closer to finding “my” art niche. Thanks again, Bec 🤩” 

If you want to join this program, the next module starts in November and is all done and dusted before the crazy month of December!!… sign up via my website or send me a message to find out more!!!
