Introduction to clay chat

Introduction to Clay Chat

We will go through the process of turning pottery into ceramics. Along with hand building techniques required to make your piece a success.


Make your piece

Make Your Piece

Get started with clay! Its pretty exciting turning a block of clay into your creation. It can be challenging, but it's also rewarding.


Paint with under Glaze Paint

Paint with Under Glaze Paint

We have previously never offered painting on un-kilned clay (it is a shortcut). We still have to kiln fire the piece twice. We will then coat it in Glaze for you, so we can put it through for a glazed finish for pickup in 4 weeks guaranteed.


Learn hand building techniques and make your own ceramic creations in this hands-on pottery class, where we'll make and paint ceramics for a fully finished item! Discover how to sculpt, mound and design unique pottery items that you can proudly take home in four weeks after glazing and firing.
If you're new to pottery, there's no need to worry! Our friendly instructor will guide you through each step with patience and encouragement, making it a fun and rewarding experience. Working with clay can be therapeutic and empowering, allowing you to tap into your creative side and express yourself through art.
Throughout the class, you will be provided with all the materials and tools needed to bring your ideas to life. By the end of the session, you will walk away with not just new skills but also with one-of-a-kind pottery pieces that reflect your creativity and passion for the craft.
This class includes first bisque firing, then we glaze coat for you after the first firing, and this includes the second glaze firing, all in one combined package.
Allow 4 weeks for your finished glazed ceramic piece to be ready for pickup at our city workshops.

Providing social art classes in beautiful South Brisbane

I'm a Brisbane-based artist, and I've been painting and drawing since my early childhood days. I was fortunate to receive a scholarship from the Queensland Art Gallery, which gave me ample opportunity to pursue my passion and hone my skills.
I'm very much inspired by the beauty and diversity of Australia. Many of my paintings focus on landscapes, surrealism, animals, and people. North Queensland is a particular favorite, and you'll see the influence of coral seas and mountain landscapes throughout my artwork. I have a post-impressionist style through which I try to capture the wonder of the world around us.
I specialize in pastel on card and acrylic on canvas, though I'm also experimenting with abstract and airbrush.
I've been fortunate enough to display my work in many art exhibitions and have been the recipient of many prizes and awards.
I offer Paint and Sip sessions along with Clay and Sip sessions, both at discounted rates for ClassBento Patrons. I believe in bringing these experiences to the customer at the very best competitive price possible, the real Australian Way. We have the largest range of paintings available with over 80 paintings on the gallery page of Wesley Taylor Art Studios, with the painting for each week found on the web page.
We hope you enjoy these sessions for a fun experience. The paintings are creative for maximum impact of colors, while keeping in mind first-time painting experiences. Those with a little more practice will create some amazing pieces.
Let us plan your special events!
“Everyone has an artistic flair and simply needs to be pointed in the right direction."
The Wesley Taylor Art Studios Mission initially set out to create workshops at half the cost of other workshops for customers to be able to enjoy the experience of creating a piece of artwork. This endeavor was to create the foundation of employing artists with a like-minded sense of assisting customers to enjoy this time out while creating new art experiences. The goals of value for money for customers and employment for artists to run these fun activities that may mark a milestone, a birthday, a hen's party, a social activity, a first date, or company team-building events to build and strengthen relationships with a common bond of creating something new. Each dandelion in the field represents a thousand possibilities waiting to be released into the wind. Just relax and be free with the wind.
