Hi, I’m Susan and I’m a fashion illustrator based in Melbourne with a love for drawing, painting, and helping others tap into their creative side. I run a small art business where I create custom illustrations and sell my work online and at boutique markets and events.
Over the years, customers began asking if I would teach them how to paint and draw, and that’s how my workshops began. I’ve always enjoyed creating in a variety of styles, and painting simplified still life has become a favourite, it's such a beautiful and accessible way to start, especially for beginners.
My workshops are relaxed, friendly, and thoughtfully guided step-by-step. You don’t need any experience, just a willingness to have a go. One of the most common pieces of feedback I receive is how pleasantly surprised people are with what they create by the end. It’s not just about learning to paint, but about taking some time for yourself, connecting with others, and walking away with something uniquely yours.
Whether you’re coming with friends or flying solo, I’d love to help you create something you’re proud of.
