My initial aim was to try different mediums until I found the type of painting that suited me.
Deb taught me to experiment with acrylics, liquid acrylics, watercolour, mixed media and to try different techniques to achieve alternate effects.
We learnt perspective drawing, shadowing, how to create depth of field, how to draw and paint portraits and a myriad of other subjects.
Her lessons are fun and informative and the studio is set in eclectic and beautiful gardens. She is a Gem!
So far, I have completed projects with acrylic paints, ink, liquid pour paint, colour pencil and mosaic.
Her lessons have a relaxed atmosphere, her studio is fantastic and it is lovely to catch up with the other students each week.
I consider myself a beginner, yet with Deb’s guidance I have completed pieces that I am proud to hang on the wall!
I've been having lessons with Deb for the last 2 years she is my mentor and now also my friend.
An amazing artist with a flair for teaching all modalities, an inspiration to us all, encouraging new techniques and ideas.
Classes are fun, full of chatter and music and held amidst an amazing garden.
She can teach any art. I've learned to draw, use watercolours and paint.
There's always friendly people and a delicious morning tea. I highly recommend Art Classes Brisbane to everyone.
She provides ideas for subject matter if needed, is able to see areas that need improvement. Deb is great with colours and above all, is a patient and skilful teacher.
The classes are fun with no pressure to perform to a certain standard.
The morning teas provide time to share with fellow students. I highly recommend Deb as an art teacher.
Her art classes are stimulating, challenging and good fun!!
I believe that she has made me a better and more rounded artist.
Her classes are fun and relaxing. It is great to see the other pupils develop as artists while at the same time receiving encouragement from them towards my own artwork.
Deb is a very creative teacher and has constantly encouraged me to use new techniques and mediums.
It has been great to see many pupils arrive thinking they are not very good and to then see them produce something worth showing.
My m-i-l is absolutely thrilled with her painting (expertly guided by Debra)! Honestly, Debra was the perfect instructor catering to our every need. Debra provided gluten free food which I thought was very kind and considerate of her. Debra was extremely patient and time went so quickly because we all had such a great time. We couldn't be happier with our 'master pieces'!
Hope to see you in my art classes. I love to teach all forms and expressions of art and have a lot of fun doing it!! So come along and chill out, get your creativity hat on and take home a beautiful, interesting art piece.
