Enjoyed my first portrait painting class so much. Kersti our teacher was very helpful and a pleasure to work with. Very happy with the results from just a short time. Can’t wait to next class.

I loved my tarot reading lessons with Sandy. She is a lovely lady and it’s just lovely. We had a particular session and we went through each card. It was nice moment

Amanda thank you so much for your lovely feedback. From the onset of our Tarot class I just loved your honesty and wonderful personality. It was a pleasure to teach you the fascinating secrets of the Tarot.

Kirsten is amazing, everything you need is ready upon arrival, and she wears her beautiful smile all the time. She guides you through each step, never pushing, always reassuring. You don't need to be able to draw or paint before taking the portraiture class to produce a stunning piece, all you need is to colour spaces, with her guidance, support, and recommandations. I am thrilled and proud with my painting and I am looking forward to next time I can bribe myself with this reasonably priced class.

Really enjoyable class and suitable for beginners. This is the only class I know of where you can paint your own photo- very unique and makes it so much more enjoyable than other classes. The class is 4 hours so there’s plenty of time and I didn’t feel rushed, although it did fly by. I chose a complex piece so I’ll need to come back for another session to complete it but most people can complete their painting in one session. There are cafes and shops nearby if you get hungry or want a coffee. The canvas is prepared ahead of time with your image so you can get straight into painting when you arrive. All materials were provided and of good quality. The teacher was friendly and easy to get along with. She helped me with each step and also helped me to mix colours correctly. The venue was easy to find, spacious and well lit. There was some background music which was nice, not too loud. This was a good experience and value for money.

Teacher's response

Hi Sarah,

Thank you so much for your kind and detailed review. I'm thrilled to hear that you found our class enjoyable and suitable for beginners.

I agree, being able to paint your own photo is a unique aspect of our class that sets us apart. It allows participants to connect with their own personal memories or experiences and adds an extra layer of enjoyment to the painting process.

I'm glad to hear that you didn't feel rushed during the 4-hour class and that there was plenty of time to work on your painting. It's always important to us that our participants feel comfortable and have enough time to complete their artwork.

Thank you again for your kind words and for highlighting the aspects of our class that you enjoyed. We hope to see you again soon for another painting session!

Warm regards, Kirsti.

Kristi was absolutely incredible! She helped transform the portrait into a breathtaking painting that seems almost too surreal to be real. Her accommodating nature made the experience truly enjoyable, and I eagerly look forward to booking more sessions with her.

Me and my friend spent a fantastic day here at the open expression workshop. We learnt so much from Kirsty who was very welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable. There was a great selection of paints, brushes and other tools to use. Such a beautiful relaxing space and atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

Teacher's response

Hi Lianne, thank you so much for your wonderful review! I was thrilled to hear that you and your friend had a fantastic day at our open expression workshop.

We would love to have you back at our workshop again, you girls chatting and laughing work perfectly with how we like our creative space to feel. Join us anytime to further explore your creativity and thank you once again for your kind words, and we look forward to seeing you soon.

Warm regards, Kirsti

Kristi was very helpful from the start! She is art focused and help us through the process of choosing photos and possible approaches to paint.
The painting was also a great experience, she offered help with technique when I needed and let my other friends focus when they seems to just enjoy creating.
Venue was great, it was quiet and we were provided with apron, plenty of paint and paint brushes. Lots of food options outside when we needed a break.
Overall the experience was good value for money. I thought 4 hours was long but it wasn’t enough. It went pretty fast when we were allowed to paint freely and since the object in the painting is someone (a person/pet) important and familiar to me, I felt comfortable to apply more ideas to the painting and details rather than worrying if I was painting what I was supposed to. My friends and are interested to try other classes offered Art Farmer too!

Teacher's response

Hi Heidi, Thanks for the the lovely review and it was a real pleasure to help you paint your princess, Amira. I hope you will send me a photo when you have hung your masterpiece.

Hope you had a safe trip home and look forward to seeing you when you are next in Brisbane.

Kirsti is amazing, patient and knowledgeable, she guided me through each step but let me do everything. She helped when I felt too overwhelmed, but always reassuring in the process and how it will turn out amazing. It was my first time painting on a canvas, first time using acrylic, first time doing anything that would look like something at the end, and it totally delivered! All material was provided, even the apron, and I found the venue to be large and luminous, full of beautiful artwork that helps feeling comfortable in the reason I was there. All for what I reckon is affordable, it is a fantastic experience, a beautiful gift I want to book again!

I had such a lovely time painting with you, at each stage you engaged in the process, and the result you achieved is so beautiful. I hope you continue to paint, you have a god eye and I know you will develop your skill very quickly and please, come and paint with us soon :)

This was such a great class! So much fun and in 3 hours we had an amazing piece of art that we will treasure. Kristi is very encouraging, supportive and skilled as she helped us bring this piece of art to life.
Such an affordable class too. You would never be able to buy a piece of bespoke art for this price let alone one that you made yourself. A very special experience.
This will be great for you to do by yourself, with friends, with family and even with work colleagues.
Highly recommended.

Hi Mel,
Thanks so much for your wonderful review and you have both shown that our beginner friendly session can create stunningly beautiful results. It was a really rewarding experience for me, working you and Shaun on you fur baby masterpieces.

Great work and it was lovely to meet you both. Kirsti

Manisha Patel Aug 2023


Kristi is awesome. I was looking for a beginner session with individual interaction with instructor. She helped me create what i wanted to. Also, she taught techniques and given enough time to practice before i could do it on final painting. Venue is great. 100%value for money. I will definitely visit again for Sunday portrait session.

Teacher's response

Hi Manisha, it was lovely to meet and work with you. I'm glad you enjoyed the process, as I enjoyed working with you very much. At Art Farmer we take pride in assisting our customers create something unique and meaningful for them rather than have everyone paint the same art piece. I am looking forward to seeing you again at our Sunday portraiture session. Kind regards Kirsti
