Hi, my name is Rhonda and I've always had a passion for doing anything creative. I'm a full-time photographer of 12 years and work from my home studio. As I grew up, I always preferred to be learning how to sew, paint, arrange flowers, cook, read or take photos.
I've worked in a scrapbooking craft shop and ended up teaching card making and scrapbooking for a few years. I've been making my own soaps and candles as well for the past year. Pretty much my whole house is one big craft room with all my paints and props that I use for my photography.
A few years ago I decided I wanted to get back into painting again and try out fluid art and I spent hours watching tutorials while I was editing photos. I then spent a lot of time experimenting with different paints, mediums, and techniques to see what I loved in the end result. One of the things I love about fluid art is that you never know what the end result will be no matter how much you try to plan it out.
When I started posting my painting on social media I started getting requests for commissioned paintings and was asked if I did workshops. So I thought why not! I've taught classes before and I love sharing what I know with others. I hold the classes in my home so they are only small classes and great for a group of friends and it's easy for me to be able to teach you better if there are only a few people.
I love chatting to people and I'm a very chilled out person who will welcome you into my home to come and have a few hours of fun relaxing and having fun!

I enjoyed this fluid art class very much.
Rhonda is very knowledgeable about the process and gave us a good demonstration before we started, she then just let us do our own thing giving advise when we asked. The class was very casual, we were offered cups of tea, coffee and water and there was snacks.
Jack was very cute and friendly too

Great experience with Rhonda an experienced teacher who is skilled in all techniques of fluid art. She provides a comfortable, well equipped, fun environment to let your creative juices flow. Had a great time and loved what I learned and produced in this session. Will definitely go back to learn fine tune different techniques.

Rhonda was great! Very friendly and welcoming. She explained the types of paints, the different mediums to use and why you get different results with different techniques. I got to make some artwork that I'm actually proud of and happy to show to family and friends.
