  • 5/5 from Danielle Archer, attended Oct 2026: Rowan's class was highly engaging, fun and relevant for everyone, from beginners to practising artists. The demonstrations were clear, easy to follow and practical for adapting at home outside of the class. There was plenty of time for questions and experimenting. I loved the huge variety of materials Rowan provided. Her teaching style is warm, accessible and open. You will come away from this with a confident new skill that you can start using immediately!
  • 5/5 from Amanda Rutherford, attended Jul 2026: Had a wonderful few hours learning the basics and doing lots of fun print experiments! Great introduction to the process - teacher was friendly and welcoming with lots of things to experiment with.
  • 4/5 from Meredith Poole, attended Feb 2026: Fun workshop where the time flew! The techniques don't require a lot of ongoing instruction, so you spend the majority of the time happily experimenting. Would recommend to get started with gel plate printing.
  • 5/5 from Sheila S, attended Oct 2024: Friendly and great teacher, and a fun class to explore our creativity, even messy result seems eye-catching :)
  • 5/5 from Cass Houlihan, attended Oct 2024: Thoroughly enjoyed this class at the lovely, light-filled IntoArts studio in West Ryde. Rowan runs a great class, very relaxed and fun, and extremely beginner-friendly with a focus on process rather than outcome. I’m happy to report that I came away with several wonderful prints that I’ll happily use as cards, framed as gifts and for collage. I highly recommend this class.
  • 5/5 from Theresa Jackson, attended Mar 2024: Great venue comfortable and near good eats. Rowan is an excellent teacher good value helped me to physically understand the process.

That is where Rowan comes in! 'I love what I do and I am passionate about teaching, inspiring and helping others to discover their creative selves'.
