About the workshops :
I have planned a weekend of mixed media mayhem! We will create our own journals and then fill them with juicy colour and your personal artistic flavour. I have a plethora of fun tools, drawing skill and art techniques to unleash your creative confidence! And because this Workshop is in my Studio
Weekend Workshop at the Nest, overlooking Byron Bay
You are encouraged to bring copies of your existing artwork to be reimagined, favourite art supplies to rediscover and journals to share if you have them.
Participants are best served by having completed at least one of my online classes. This is so you are warmed up and ready to wring the best out of me and the workshop. You will feel comfortable and eager to move beyond the basics and into more exciting territory if you are familiar with my style and teaching style.
The Institute of Cute Shop is open for Art Supply purchases.
It will be a busy and productive weekend spent with kindred creative spirits in a truly special place. I will send you home exhausted, exhilarated and absolutely bursting with inspiration!
………………………………
It will be a fun and intense whirlwind of a weekend, creating whimsical, beautiful, mixed-media faces and figures. Lots of drawing and painting techniques for making gorgeous artwork and letting your creativity flow from your heart and onto the page.

“Jane delivered a massive creative boost backed up with a magic way of transferring concrete skills to us, her students. I experienced one artistic aha-moment after another. Jane genuinely cared about each student’s progress and seamlessly managed all the differing levels of skill and experience in the classroom. Weeks after the workshop I am still feeling the effects and seeing my work in a whole new light.”

Byron Bay Accomodation ideas:
The Nest is just 15 minutes from Main Beach, Byron Bay. There is a ton of places to stay. Also look at Accommodation in Mullumbimby, Coorabell and Brunswick Heads. It is ‘Schoolies’ time, so Byron Bay will be full of great people watching, but it may be a bit noisy!
If you are after luxury, The Byron at Byron and Peppers at Coorabell are lovely.

I’m confused, is the supplies list covered in the price or do participants need to buy the Supplies List (Matte paint, Liquidtex, Prismacolour pencils, paint brushes etc.) on top of the tuition fee ???
I’m interested in this weekend’s workshop if there’s still a place but don’t want to have to buy $100s in supplies on top of the workshop price.
Hi Sally,
I hope you decide to join us!
The list is pretty modest and all supplies you would go on using.
You will need paintbrushes, matte medium and some gesso . you can bring any brand, but Liquitex is the best for the techniques I show you. We sell small bottles and I have some to share.
I have Serviettes to share, but it’s nice to swap some with the other participants if you bring some.
The Dabber paints are $8, and we sell them too because they are awesome and hard to find!
Prismacolors – we sell individually, so thats not expensive either.
If you have any more questions just ask.
If you are ready to book email hello @ instituteofcute.com
Sorry Jane, need to give it a miss this weekend, just not enough time to organise the hubby and teeny one. Hope to make it sometime next year if you hold these workshops again. Have a great weekend!

Hi Jane. Can you please tell me what times your workshop goes for in the Perth Workshop?
Arrive from 9.30 for a 10am start and 4pm finish
Hi Jane and Angus
I have holidays confirmed! And I can come to the April workshop. I just need to books flight and find out what time the day starts on Saturday and Sunday as the hubby and kids will be travelling with me and will need to know times to drop me off and pick me up. Staying with a friend at Dunoon.
WooHoo
Jane
Hi Jane,
I’d absolutely LOVE to join your weekend workshop in April… if work allows me! I was wondering, I have not yet completed Supplies Me – I know you mentioned above, it is important to have completed at least one of your on-line workshops.
Would it be better for me to complete Supplies Me first, then aim for a Byron Bay workshop next year (if you still have them on then?)? Thank you!
Jess
The reason I say to have completed one of my workshops is so you Are feeling creatively confident! Ad this is one of the gifts my online workshops deliver. But if you are already feeling that way already , you will be ok!
P.S.
Will there be any other of your Byron Bay workshops later on this year?? (Just thinking about work…)
Thank you!
I am not sure Jessica, my year is very full already! Try and make it to the April class, but if you can’t, keep tuned for later dates.
Oh dear I think I missed the dates.
