Where Art Meets the Natural World: Nature Art Workshops
Mandala Zebra Finch, Ellen Grace
Rooted in close observation and a lifelong curiosity for the natural world, these intimate art workshops invite participants to slow down and notice the small wonders often overlooked. Guided by artist and educator Ellen Grace, each session explores Australian native flora and fauna through drawing and painting, balancing scientific accuracy with softness, colour, and quiet storytelling. Workshops are suitable for all skill levels and can be booked by private groups, with each session fully tailored to suit client wishes. Content, materials, subject matter, and pacing can be customised for community groups, schools, creative teams, private events, or relaxed social gatherings. Held in a gentle, welcoming environment, the workshops prioritise process over perfection and curiosity over confidence. More than technical lessons, they offer a chance to pause, observe, and reconnect — fostering creativity, connection, and a renewed sense of wonder through art.
