What we’re about
This group is for anyone who has always wanted to take art lessons and finally decided to do so. After working in schools for the past 30 years, and with my new Diploma of Art Therapy, I have developed a unique teaching system that is more than just learning skills. I know the health benefits of living a creative life. I help people develop their creative side so they can use art-making to learn, grow, heal, make friends and find enjoyment.
In 2009, my husband of 22 years, lost his battle with Depression. My life was turned upside down in an instant! Art became invaluable to me while I grieved and by 2016 I was ready to launch Studio Yellow. I now share what I've learned personally (and professionally) with others because I really believe Art helps to make life worth living.
While everyone is welcome, I started Studio yellow to reach out to adults who feel they really need to start 'ART' from the very beginning. My classes combine everything I know about art materials and techniques with everything I have learnt about fostering creativity from the 100s of students I have taught during my career. As a fully qualified, registered Art teacher, I make every class relaxed and informative so you will learn how to enjoy the creative process in a completely non-judgemental atmosphere. With lots of personal attention, absolute beginners feel particularly supported.
You will meet people who have always had art in their heart but have had little or no opportunity to learn how to do it. I also run sessions for those with some Art experience who are looking to reignite their confidence or work in a collaborative art space. Our members also meet up socially at Galleries and Exhibition openings and anywhere else that takes our fancy.
My classes are held in Manly West on Brisbane's beautiful bayside on weekdays and Saturdays!! I also offer Corporate workshops such as my '5 Steps to unlock Positive, Proactive and Productive teams'. A full list of classes and workshops are listed on my website (www.studioyellow.com.au).
I love changing lives for the better, through Art as I truly believe all Art is therapy. I urge you to nurture your mental health forever by starting a healthy hobby today!
I look forward to meeting you soon, Natalie

- Unique Art Mentoring Program (Tuesdays, 4-weeks)Manly West Studio, BrisbaneA$287.00
Signing up for weekly sessions helps you to make that regular commitment to a life-changing habit as well as form new friendships.
If you are looking for a way to stop feeling bored, lonely, unhappy, empty, resentful, or inadequate, Art should be part of your action plan?
Maybe you just lost for ideas or out of practice?
My unique ART MENTORING PROGRAM, located in Manly West near Wynnum is both fun and therapeutic. There are 8 modules offered per year. Each Module offers new content, so you can continue your creative journey for 12 months before ever repeating a lesson. You can start any time of the year and if you miss a module you can complete them in any order.
You’ll be learning Art to love life.
My art-journaling style program allows you to ‘taste test’ a wide variety of different media while you build Art skills and Art confidence. As your mentor, I will show you how to develop a creative mindset as you create pages of ideas and “samplers” that can be used to inspire large works later.
The journaling format also means you’ll make more art in less time AND because a journal takes up less space, you can easily continue your new passion at home. You can even work on your lap when the kids are awake!!
What’s included: I supply all the materials, equipment, and resources needed for classes, as well as a beautiful A4 ART journal to keep forever. PLUS I give you BONUS daily journal prompts (each week) to inspire more creativity at home, Complimentary Tea/coffee too!
