Hi,
My name is Daina. I teach art and make wild creative stuff that comes from my imagination from paintings, to theatre sets, puppets and more. I love the fine arts, theatre, and 3D art and design. I love to create classes where we experiment in mediums we might not have imagined using before. Introducing for these sessions my favourite experimental medium... PLAYDOH!
It turns out Play-Doh isn't just for kids, it's for big kids too!
In this class, you will spend a relaxing few hours with your friends, chatting, learning about artists and creating a piece of fine art using Play-Doh as your medium. All works will be photographed so you have a digital image to keep always, as well as a mini poster sent to you after the sessions of all the works created as a memory of your day.
Working in Play-Doh is extremely relaxing. It is an immense amount of fun to create a work of fine art which moves from 2D to 3D, with Play-Doh as your medium.
You will have the opportunity for a break and walk around the gardens, a chance to snack on a grazing platter and to enjoy a chai tea. You are very welcome to BYO alcohol if you wish to, but the chai is pretty good if I do say so myself!
What you'll get
A take-home piece of art, and follow-up digital images emailed after the workshop. All acrylic paints, canvases, and other art materials provided. Healthy gluten-free grazing platter with tea provided.
Knowledge required
No prior knowledge
What to bring
Messy clothes, closed-toe shoes, water bottles, a desire to fully escape from phones, and to chat all afternoon and have lots of fun.

Your teacher


I discovered the thrill of creating beauty using the humble pencil as a child. I have studied* and created art all my life, exhibiting in Sydney, Queensland, California and London. I now love to use the skills I have learnt over the years to create original art experiences for my students which provide them a space to discover their own unique voice and style, in whatever medium they are drawn to.
My interest increasingly lies in the joy of the process rather than the finished piece, but more often than not if the former is there, and a state of flow is entered, the finished piece will unfold.
I bring to my sessions years of knowledge on technique and materials, a big heart and a desire to see in my students both enjoyment and a state of peace in the moments when they are creating. Art is more than the images we can create. It is also the energy, the truths, the thoughts and imagination that become freed. Art can make us feel more joy, more confident, more centred and at ease.
My art classes have been running for the past 8 years in Brisbane and on the Sunshine Coast. My classes are designed to create a fun space for kids and adults to explore their creativity and imaginations. No pressure with maximum fun.
All of my classes provide not only all the materials you will need, but a peaceful backdrop of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland as well as grazing platters, endless tea and chai.
