Kimberley Mixed Media Abstract Painting and Drawing Workshop with Judith White
July 15 to 21, 2025 ONE LEFT! Call 0428 254 529 or email
If you are ready for the creative adventure of a lifetime, this painting holiday for experienced artists is one to remember. Rich with bespoke experiences, insider access, an expert tutor and experienced guides, you'll love the art sessions interspersed with excursions and special encounters. Enjoy tuition by Judith White at the cattle station, Digger's Rest.
Workshops with Judith are a rare opportunity to learn painting and drawing techniques from one of Australia's leading contemporary artists. Art sessions usually begin with outdoor drawing sessions using a variety of materials while you absorb context, relevance and a local influence, moving onto the verandahs to develop your works. Exhibit your work in the informal exhibition and celebrate your achievements.
We have ONE PLACE remaining. The accommodation is a basic tent. Don't let the fact that it is a tent put you off - we’ll make sure you're comfy as can be in there - you'll have a stretcher for the mattress; a mat, lighting, little table. While it’s not as salubrious as our other tents, it is still great value for money for a Kimberley itinerary like this and a tutor of Judith's calibre. The tent is pitched on level lawns around the homestead close to the workshop space and meals area with a 2 minute walk to hot showers and toilets.
The price is $3650 - we have a Mother’s Day discount of $300 until midnight this Wednesday, so it would be $3350 with the discount.
