Colourful Kangaroo Homeschoolers Sesh 4th September 2025

Kids & Teens Painting Workshop – Thursday 4th September 2025

Join us for a fun, hands-on painting experience with local expressive wildlife artist Jess Harrison at ArtMatters Gallery, 3 Pitt Street, Gladstone.

This class welcomes all experience levels — from curious beginners to budding young artists! It’s all about having fun, exploring colours, and letting creativity run free. Students will be given a black-and-white source image to work from, encouraging them to choose their own colours to bring the artwork to life. They’ll also explore how contrast and colour can enhance their painting and make it visually striking.

Date & Time: Thursday, 4th September 2025 | 10:30am – 12:30pm
Price: $35 per student (all materials provided)

Mediums & Materials: Acrylic paints, paint pens, brushes, palettes, easels, black-and-white reference images, plus a take-home handout filled with tips, tricks, and creative inspiration. 

I’ll pre-draw the kangaroo outline onto the canvas so your kids can focus on the fun part, painting! If your child would prefer to draw their own outline, just let me know when booking.

Students finish the class with a beautiful creation in hand, something they can be proud of and share with family and friends!

Parents are welcome to stay and enjoy the beautiful ArtMatters gardens or return when the class finishes.

It can get a little messy mixing children with paint, so please ensure your child wears something old.

Bring snacks and water if desired.
