“To paint or draw, exploding colour to surface – allowing time and space to breathe the songs of our hearts into the wild– it must be done always, always” Rebekah Jackson

Women’s Open Studio Sessions are an opportunity to establish or reignite a weekly visual art practice. Bourne from a desire to carve creative time and space into our chaotic schedules, (despite all of the ‘need to-do’s) this weekly session allows the new or returning artist to foster a regular artistic practice.

The open sessions cater for all creative skill levels where you will meet regularly to work on independent projects. Weekly warm up exercise prompts (and associated drawing materials) will be provided – to welcome into the space. Following this optional component, individuals will be encouraged to explore and develop their own works and projects.

These classes provide weekly conversation time with Rebekah to nurture and grow a bold + confident artistic approach. Guidance and support on exploring new mediums within the field of painting + drawing will be provided. You will be encouraged to experiment within your work, working towards finding your way through any blocks and towards a peaceful and joyful time of creative flow.

The well-equipped studio space is the professional working studio of Rebekah Jackson, providing ample work + bench space to allow for individuals to explore their practice. The studio is equipped with the essential wash-up area, restroom, and tea + coffee amenities.

Materials required for individual works are not included in the price – and must be supplied by the student. Students are encouraged to seek out materials within their own budget – guidance and direction can be provided when exploring + sourcing new mediums.
