Spring, a time of rebirth, renewal, new beginnings, and growth.
As we come out of hiding, this oil painting class will encourage you to step into the light by embracing a new skill.
This workshop will offer the space to try, learn, and be, with guidance from your tutor Daisy Embury.
Working with the same image, the whole class will work through their painting step by step, with the flexibility and space to figure out your own creative preferences and voice. Students will move from sketching, to developing their colour palette, to applying paint. Spring, a time of Rebirth, renewal, new beginnings and growth. Students can expect to learn a full range of skills, including the gridding method, your basic sketch, colour theory, brushes and techniques.
This is the perfect session for those new to oil painting and those who want to experiment - there are no wrongs or rights, just gentle encouragement.

Daisy is an artist, oil painter, and holistic creative therapist.
She has been oil painting since she was 12, with her subject matter growing alongside her curiosities. Prior to oil painting, she expressed herself through a range of different creative modalities, including dance, singing, other paint mediums, poetry, and collecting crystals.
Alongside her own creative practice, studying Fine Art at university, and her role as Personalisation Artist & Expert for Louis Vuitton, Melbourne, Daisy has always been interested in creativity as a tool for healing. During her degree, she delved into short studies in Mindfulness-Based Art, worked in a yoga studio, and was influenced by Alain de Botton’s Art as Therapy. She also spent a few years in New Zealand, working within rehabilitation, alongside prisoners, facilitating, and with children, all of which she was able to use creativity as a tool to better wellbeing and dive inwards.
As a graduate of Holistic Creative Therapy, Daisy’s work is guided by the values of love, creativity, and curiosity, and rooted in a deep belief in creativity as a gentle tool for self-connection and healing. Daisy offers a calm, supportive environment where participants are invited to explore creative expression at their own pace.
