IN PERSON
ABSTRACT
PAINTING
WORKSHOPS

Sydney August-September 2026
In Person Changes Things.
When we are in the room together, guidance happens in real time.
As you paint, I can see what is unfolding. Where your work tightens, where something hesitates, where another possibility is waiting. I can respond, helping you move your painting forward while you are still inside the process.
My in person abstract painting workshops in Sydney are a focused opportunity to work closely together, receive hands-on direction, and create tangible movement in your work.
About The Workshops
You will:
-
paint together in a supported studio environment
-
receive real time prompts as you paint
-
experience frequent demonstrations as questions, ideas, and challenges arise
-
explore abstract expressionism through practice rather than theory
-
loosen your marks and deepen your visual language
-
work through blocks as they arise while painting
Demonstrations are responsive rather than scripted, shaped by what is happening in the room and in the paintings being made.
Who This Is For
These workshops are for artists who feel drawn to abstraction.
You may already be working abstractly and want to refine or push existing artwork, or you may be standing at the edge of abstraction, curious but unsure.
You do not need to arrive confident.
You do not need a finished body of artwork.
You are welcome to bring unfinished paintings or begin something new.
All levels are welcome.

What's included:
-
live demonstrations
-

FAQs
Do I need experience with abstract painting?
No. My workshops welcome artists at all stages of their abstract journey, from first explorations to more established practices.
​
Will there be demonstrations?
Yes. There will be regular live demonstrations. These arise from what is happening in the room and in the paintings being made. Demonstrations are there to support your understanding, not to be copied.
​
Can I bring existing work?
Absolutely. You are welcome to bring unfinished or unresolved paintings, or to begin something new during the workshop.
​
What if I feel stuck or unsure?
That is a normal part of the painting process. Working in person allows transformation to happen while you are painting, so you are supported in the moment rather than left to figure it out alone.
​
What’s included?
All materials are included. You simply need to arrive ready to paint. You are welcome to bring current work or tools you love or colours that are part of your individual palette.
