In this workshop artist Kathie Najar will take you on a journey, showing you some skills and tips on how to create a beautiful repeat arabesque rosette design incorporating Australian native flora elements. Participants will work with local flora that inspired Kathie’s artwork ‘Constellation Pool’ for SWELL Sculpture Festival, or you are welcome to bring your own specimen to incorporate into your artwork.

You will be tracing and drawing, requiring no experience, just a will to learn a new process. Quality watercolour paper and materials will be provided, and techniques learnt will make it simple to complete at home on your own.
