The Studio Program: Monday Daytime Studio

Painting + Drawing: Four hours, once a week, with nowhere else to be. Come with your own direction. Start with some warm-up drawing. Sessions are structured around the room — bring a piece you're already partway through, printed reference material or photos you want to draw or paint from, or simply an idea you haven't started yet. Develop confidence with colour, materials and composition while exploring contemporary and traditional approaches to drawing and painting. Strengthen observation, visual thinking and expressive mark-making through practical studio-based exercises with Kate Coyne. Suitable for beginners, returning artists and experienced makers alike. Booking is essential. Book early to guarantee a place.

Places are limited to 10 participants per session.

An apron or old shirt is a good idea. Something to wrap your palette/brushes in for clean up at home.

In association with Clifton School of Arts 

The Studio Program is presented in association with Clifton School of Arts, a home for the arts, learning and community in the Northern Illawarra since 1880. Our workshops support their fundraising efforts.

This association matters to us. CSA is one of the region's most significant cultural organisations, managed entirely by volunteers and sustained by the generosity of its members and supporters. The Studio Program is proud to contribute to that community — bringing a new generation of participants through its doors and supporting the ongoing life of a place that has always believed in the importance of creativity.
