Create your own colourful Australian bird collage from papers Julie has created and papers you paint yourself.
Gather your friends and escape to the beautiful Southern Highlands for a relaxed three-hour collage workshop at Stables Studios, learning how to create a bold Australian bird using painted papers, pattern, colour, and collage. Bring your own group of up to six friends for a private creative afternoon with artist Julie Lynch.
You'll begin by creating your own collection of colourful collage papers using acrylic paint, experimenting with colour, texture, marks, and pattern. Then comes the fun part — cutting, layering, and composing your papers to create your chosen Australian bird.
Choose from:
  • Galah
  • Kookaburra
  • Cockatoo
  • Blue Wren
  • Magpie
  • Green Parrot
Julie Lynch will guide you through the process step by step, sharing her approach to colour, composition, and collage. You'll learn how simple shapes and layers of painted paper can be transformed into a lively and expressive Australian bird.
No previous art experience is necessary. Whether you're completely new to collage or already love making art, you'll have plenty of opportunity to experiment and develop your own style.
You'll finish the afternoon with your own original Australian bird collage to take home.
Set within the historic Stables at Throsby Park, this is a chance to step away from the everyday, enjoy a beautiful creative environment, and spend three relaxed hours making something colourful and uniquely yours.

Welcome to Julie Lynch at Stables Studios, my creative home within the historic stables at Throsby Park in the Southern Highlands.
I am a full-time artist with a deep love for capturing the beauty of nature and the stories woven into both vintage and contemporary objects. Through my paintings, I hope to inspire a stronger connection to the world around us, offering moments of joy, wonder and quiet reflection.
Creativity has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Drawing, painting and making have always been my way of exploring the world, inspired by nature's beauty and the treasured objects we collect along the way. Today, surrounded by the quiet yet exhilarating beauty of the Southern Highlands, I continue to draw inspiration from the landscape, gardens, seasons and everyday moments that find their way into my work.
My paintings blend the vibrancy of nature with the charm of nostalgic and contemporary objects, each piece telling its own unique story. Using bold colour, layered textures and a combination of impasto techniques and collage, I create artworks that celebrate beauty, memory and connection.
Over the years, I have been privileged to exhibit in galleries throughout Australia, with my work finding homes in private collections both here and overseas. One of the greatest joys of my practice is sharing that creative journey with others, whether through exhibitions, collector visits, painting classes, mentorship programs or my seasonal Open Studio Days.
Stables Studios has been created as a place where art, creativity, history and community come together. A place to pause, be inspired, learn, collect, create and connect.
I invite you to visit, explore my latest collections and become part of this exciting new chapter.
