AN INVITATION TO PRACTICING ARTISTS

WHAT TO EXPECT AT STUDIO...

We would like to personally invite practicing artists on the Sunshine Coast who are interested in fine art guidance and tuition to our private weekly classes.

Jess Le Clerc has been teaching art for over two decades and is passionate about developing a small group of local artists who have been through basic artistic training and are ready to take their art to the next level.

Specific forward motion in individual style and technique is the missing link in so many artists work. Having a mentor that understands this and the specifics of what the student is wanting to develop is key to an individual artists growth and success.

Working with a group of artists in a regular studio is one of the best ways to enjoy your art form and progress.

All Supplies are provided, however Studio Students are encouraged to bring their own brushes & surfaces. This is a 2.5 hr class.

This class will help artists in the following areas:

  • Colour theory
  • Perspective & value technical training
  • Style development
  • Drawing from life
  • Goal setting as an artist
  • Art prizes
  • Exhibiting work
  • Pricing work for sale

STUDENTS ENROL IN THE SAME CLASS EACH WEEK

CLASS OPTIONS:

Monday Class Times:

  • 3:30pm – 6:00pm

Tuesday Class Times:

  • 9:00am – 11:30am

STARTER CLASS:

The Starter Class is an introductory class for all new students in Core & Studio Classes.

This class is a requirement for all new students prior to attending their first class at Art School.

We go through some of our foundational principles and methods, so new students don't have to spend their first lesson learning what the majority of the class may already know. 

For returning students the Starter Class is optional. This class is 2.5 hrs long and is an additional $50.

Once we can offer you a position in our classes we will be in touch regarding when our Starter Classes are running so you can choose a time that works for you.
