Jacqueline Coates Painting Workshops

The painting workshops began five years ago from my home in Kapunda through requests from the general public. I never dreamed I would be teaching, however, when so many people asked, I then worked out a compassionate and non- stressful strategy to make it a confidence-boosting, results-producing course for participants. Students range from absolute beginners, to the experienced, and those that have become rusty from not exercising their creative muscles!

I now teach in Brisbane, Sydney, Kapunda, Grafton, Adelaide, Port Lincoln and Wellington, New Zealand. I have also taught in Young and Moree in NSW.

With a traditional art background as well as that of an art director, I employ both classical techniques and some thoughtful short cuts designed to help you achieve great results in a what is usually a day to three days, depending upon the program. Everyone goes home with a great result, and most people are really surprised and delighted at what they have come up with. That's the creative process for you.

All art materials are supplied as is catering unless otherwise stated.

Gift Vouchers are popular gifts. Participants enjoy a wonderful workshop courtesy of a good friend or their family. Simply phone the studio to arrange.

Painting kits are now available also for those who can't make it to the locations specified. The kits make great gifts. Please visit the Gifts page to read more.

Thanks for your interest and good luck with the painting!
