  • 5/5 from Sandra Ewing, attended Mar 2026: What a fabulous way to celebrate our sister’s birthday! Leah’s Acrylic Pouring class in her beautiful Koah studio near Kuranda was an amazing creative experience. Leah gently guided us through colour, the Dutch Pour technique, a lovely visualisation, and a surprisingly profound colour card activity. Then we rolled up our sleeves and created some magic! None of us expected to produce such gorgeous, meaningful pieces of art. An inspiring experience in a peaceful studio surrounded by nature. Highly recommend for a special occasion or anyone wanting to explore creativity and self-expression.
  • 5/5 from Dale Bennett, attended Jan 2025: Leah was an excellent teacher, taking us through basic colour theory and drawing inspiration from nature and our surroundings. This helped immensely with deciding on a colour pallette before creating our artwork. Leah explained all the techniques before we did them and demonstrated everything without actually doing it for us. It was very hands on and we learned a lot. The studio was very welcoming and the surrounding area was tranquil and beautiful.
  • 4/5 from Toma Hartley, attended Sep 2024: I took my friend to one of Leah's classes as a birthday surprise. Leah had "Happy Birthday" playing as we walked up the path of the gorgeous property - scene well set for a fabulous afternoon. Thanks Leah - we had a ball! :)
  • 5/5 from Donna Edwards, attended May 2024: The acrylic pouring art class with Leah was so much fun! It was very creative and experimental, different to anything else I’d done before. I love how the end result is a surprise and how the colours reveal themselves to you! Now I have a beautiful painting to hang on my wall. Awesome great time with a friend too, it’s lots of fun to do it together. Thanks so much Leah
  • 5/5 from Gabriella Ehrmann, attended May 2024: I booked a class but was the only student.. Leah still took me on. What a privilege.. The workshop was revitalizing, intresting and awesome. Leah ' s approach and knowledge was great. Not just have I been shown the technical side of acrylic pouring, I learned how to express my inner thoughts into a painting. Went home with lots of new thoughts and with a bounce and smile.
  • 5/5 from Deirdre McDonagh, attended Mar 2024: I was the only student so it was like a private lesson. Leah was an excellent teacher, explaining everything from colour theory to choosing a colour palette. Her colour reading was amazing and populated my mind with colours that came through clearly in the piece of art that I produced. Leah was very easy to get along with and I felt like I'd met a bit of a kindred spirit. I would highly recommend her classes.
  • 5/5 from Jacqui Susan Reed, attended Jan 2024: Fabulous morning spent with Leah, very well organised, knowledgeable and the session tailored to individual need. Gorgeous setting also

  • 5/5 from Victoria Marriott, attended Jan 2022: Leah is an incredible art teacher. It took me some time to truly let go and go with the flow of the art class but Leah guides with a lot of humour and fun to break through and connect deeply to the artistic process. I was able to connect with my inner child with the meditation and intuitive Oracle card selection. Art materials and paint were all provided included choice of canvas and colour. It was a lot of fun creating the art design with a hair-dryer :) After the class I feel inspired, excited and have learnt so much about paint and colour and the acrylic art process and techniques that I am keen to do more. Thank you so much
  • 4/5 from Kelly Merrill, attended Jan 2022: Really enjoyed the class overall. The knowledge and passion of the instructor was apparent, and I was definitely put at ease with any questions. It was a fun technique that I would not have learned on my own without guidance, yet is simple enough to carry forward into life and make a variety of pieces with. Really glad I did it!

We had a great time. The session was well worth the money.
  • 5/5 from Imelda Ellis, attended Apr 2021: The class was really fun and enlightening. I’ve dabbled with watercolour and oil painting. Acrylic pouring personally is the most fun and exciting. I am looking forward to doing another piece. Leah is a great teacher.

  • 5/5 from Rowena Mangona, attended Mar 2021: Leah was fantastic, we learned more than just the paint pouring but about ourselves too and how to resonate with colours. However, because the class was for 3 hours (went for over 4 with us being a big group) water should be provided as my friend's children (young adults) lost focus towards the end as they were very thirsty. If cannot be provided, we should've been advised so we can bring our own bottled water. Thanks

  • 5/5 from Yasmin Shima, attended Feb 2021: This class went beyond learning this method but also delved into colour theory & intuitive art. The visualisation was a wonderful addition to get into a serene, creative zone. Leah was informative and lovely and the venue is inspiring and set amongst nature. I learnt what I wanted to learn about colour mixing and this particular technique. I would like to try some of her other classes.
