In this 4-hour workshop Jandamarra shares his personal technique of creating depth and portrait likeness using his own unique way of using colours. Participants will be required to have a small sketched portrait prepared prior so they can get straight into painting. Open to all artists of all levels. Acrylic paints and some brushes supplied. (please bring your favourite brushes if you have some)

“I believe in empowering the creative teacher within.. as once this happens we are unstoppable.. and we reclaim the sovereign power over our creative process.“

PROFILE

Jandamarra Cadd – a Yorta Yorta and Dja Dja Warung descendent, is an inspirational man with many stories to tell. With his vibrant and expressive portraitures, Jandamarra’s artwork is emotive and insightful – and is a powerful medium to bridge the story telling divide between Aboriginal and mainstream Australia.

Painting has been a way of life that has enabled him to express his creativity and storytelling and in many of his paintings of the human condition, he seeks to be a peaceful voice for unity. Jandamarra uses a variety of styles and mediums, with his unique blend of traditional aboriginal art techniques along with his own signature contemporary portraiture.
