Calling all ocean lovers! Quite possibly, I do believe I am the only Artist and teacher in WA who is teaching my technique and this flow process, in ''Oil Paint.''

Using OIL paint, rather than acrylic, creates deliciously rich lustre and vibrancy, something that acrylic absolutely cannot!

With oodles of free parking right by the Swan River's edge, this is an absolute no brainer.

Find some 'me time' and come join me, Louise Farnay in my Oceanic Abstract Painting Workshop. Soak up and enjoy the relaxing vibes, of literally watching paint merge, whilst learning my process and enjoy the sublime views of the Swan River, right from my studio window.

Guided by me, your friendly and extremely experienced teacher, you'll learn how to create the work I exhibit, inspired by the motion of the ocean. Experiment with a myriad of mediums, breaking all the rules, and create a masterpiece that is absolutely, uniquely yours.

Our classes are kept small and intimate to ensure you receive quality one-on-one attention and instruction. Join us solo, come along with your colleagues for team building or unwind with your besties for a truly laidback hens party event.

At the end of your class, return home with your very own artwork to remind you of the sea!

Listed below are Louise’s various Workshops:

Paint Your Pooch - NEW! Acrylic based on canvas, plenty of textures, and guided brushwork, all you need bring is a photo of your pooch, or other furry friend. Louise, with her high energy, and creative career, including cartoon and caricature, facilitates you to an easy-to-understand practice, creating a loving expression of your pooch’s face, capturing each furry friend uniquely, individually, personality-filled as they are!

Oceanic Abstraction - Louise describes her unique discipline that she self-created as her ‘’fluid, dreamy, watery side, and emotional side.’’ Using all oil mediums, Louise will share her personal mastery of how she blends various oil mediums to create a dreamy, fluid and masterly skillful technique. This is like NO other workshop out there, and is very messy so wear your glad rags! This is a hugely calming process of going inward and just being with the paint. Your results will be completely individual, highly-rewarding, personal and unique.

Beach Bums - Louise expresses her “quirky, playful side” in this hugely popular FUN-FILLED workshop where she breaks down the human form into easy to paint shapes, so even if you’ve never painted before, you WILL master the figurative form like a pro! You will learn what and how to blend, mix, scrape and create real beach textures. This is acrylic painting process is highly therapeutic, relaxing fun. You’ll walk home with a canvas proud and ready to hang!

Hyper-Realism - Louise describes her photo-like accurate oil-based work as an extremely intense, challenging discipline. If you are a perfectionist and want to paint realism, this is for you! Louise describes this as her calm, introvert and highly focused trait of her character. You will learn how to measure figurative form traditionally, to get each body limb and part in proportion, before learning how to mix and blend, using a dry brush work-technique, she also taught herself. This requires extreme patience, around 100 hours per painting, and a want to learn how to master your skill to accurate perfection. Oil based mediums are used in this workshop. One-on-one or small groups up to four pax only.
