  • 5/5 from Poornima Vamshi, attended Feb 2025: I loved the class. I did not expect this outcome of a lovely art work completed in the session especially since it was my first one. Sowmya is a wonderful teacher, who has a great deal of experience and is very well prepared and planned for the session. I admire her enthusiasm for art work. I am inclined to taking up more classes from her. It was worth the time and travel.
  • 5/5 from Emma Kettle, attended Jan 2025: I LOVED this class! I had no previous experience but was guided step by step by the lovely (and patient!) Sowmya. She provided everything needed and it was a very relaxing but productive afternoon. Highly recommend for individuals or groups. The photo is what o produced in about two hours.
  • 5/5 from Evelyn Marr, attended Sep 2024: Today i tried dot painting for the 1st time and had the privilege to receive a one on one class with Sowmya. She is absolutely lovely which made the expensive enjoyable and stress free, with her patient and motherly nature. She took the time to show different techniques, tips and ideas. I loved that everything was already set up with a pre painted canvas, with all the tools and supplies ready to go, so time is not taken and you get value for money. She also stocks a large selection of different colours to choose from, along with various sized tools, so you can really personalised your piece to your own preference. Her passion for her work and teaching are inspiring and i can't wait to see what else she has in stall for future classes. I will definitely return!
  • 5/5 from Kylie Forbes, attended Aug 2024: My bestie and I attended a Mandala painting workshop in Cranbourne North today.

  • 5/5 from Gail Ackroyd, attended Aug 2024: Sowmya was an amazing teacher very patient and great instructions. She made it fun and really enjoyable. The venue was light and all the materials were provided. My friend Judy and I surprised ourselves in how quickly it was to pick it up in the mandala painting. We loved the class. Highly recommend.
  • 5/5 from Lisa Nichols, attended Jul 2024: Sowmya was brilliant! It was my first time doing Dot Painting and I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher! She showed me how to use all the tools, techniques, how to fix mistakes and where to buy the supplies. She was very informative and patient! I will definitely be going back for more classes with her. I now have the confidence to finish my art at home!
  • 5/5 from Tahlia Stoll, attended Jul 2024: Sowmya was great at teaching all the necessary skills in creating a mandala. She was very helpful and showed us the techniques until we could master them, she was very patient. We had fun and would definitely recommend this class to others
  • 5/5 from Tina Moorthy, attended Jun 2024: This was my first time doing dot mandala class and also the first time i have had a very thorough and attentive teacher teaching me the techniques of dot mandala. Sowmya my teacher was so patient in teaching her skills. It was a lovely art therapy, very meditative and soothing to the soul. There was an abundance of paint to choose from and displays of many of Soumya art work which was so inspiring. Thankyou so much Soumya.

Hi, I’m Sowmya — a self-taught artist.
My love for mandala and textured art began as a creative journey and gradually grew into a passion for sharing the joy of art with others. I believe creating art can be a wonderful way to slow down, focus, unwind and reconnect with your creative side.
Through my workshops, I make art approachable and enjoyable for everyone—even if you’ve never considered yourself “artistic”!
I offer mandala, textured and floral art workshops designed to be:
Relaxing & mindful
Beginner-friendly
Hands-on & creative
A chance to create something you’re proud to take home
Whether you’re looking for a fun activity with friends, a creative experience for your kids, a special celebration or a team wellbeing experience, come and enjoy some creative time with me.
Book a workshop and give yourself some creative time—you might surprise yourself with what you create!
