We Still Have 2 Spots Left In One Of Our Upcoming 2023 Workshops – Is One Yours?

EVERYDAY NATURE SKETCHBOOKS – with Deb Mostert

September 2-3, 2023. Girraween National Park. 10am start

$220 for members, $255 for non-members (this included a $35 membership fee). Limit 10

This course will involve getting into a daily habit of nature drawing in the context of a sketchbook. With a simple kit of materials, you can carry everywhere, you will discover that you can be opportunistic about drawing from the natural world, and this can help get us into daily creative habits of observation, discovery and wonder.

We will explore the use of sketchbooks as an incubator, a sentimental keepsake, a mind clearer, a list holder, an idea launcher, a best friend, a personal, intimate, and honest playground. We will discover that we CAN draw and that any time is a good time to build our creative habits!

Deb holds a Bachelor of Fine Art from Qld College of Art and has had 18 solo shows and been involved in more than 70 group shows in both regional and commercial galleries. She has won several prizes and been a finalist in many National art prizes including the Bale Painting Prize, the Salon de Refuses, Jacaranda Drawing Prize, and Marie Ellis Prize for Drawing.

She has over 18 years of teaching experience with workshops and artist-in-residencies. Deb is committed to a daily sketchbook practice and loves to share the potential that is within everyone to carry a sketchbook and use it to record life.
