Remember, the goal here is not perfection but joy in creation and learning. So choose a workshop that sparks joy and curiosity within you! 

Be guided by passionate artists in Perth

Painting classes

Our painting classes are led by passionate local artists who are eager to share their love for art with beginners like you. These talented artisans provide step-by-step instructions and tools required and demonstrate techniques that make painting approachable, enjoyable and most of all, fun!

In each painting workshop in Perth, you'll learn essential skills such as mixing colours, developing compositions, mastering brush techniques and creating textures. At the same time, these artists will also encourage experimentation and individual expression—after all, art should reflect one’s unique personality!

Please don't hesitate to ask questions or seek advice during your workshop. These artists are there to guide and inspire you and guide you along your artistic journey. So even if you’re a complete beginner, you can still learn how to paint with no experience required. By the end of your class, not only will you have a beautiful piece of artwork to take home but also a newfound appreciation for painting. Who knows, you might even have found a new creative hobby!

Get creative with different painting styles

Once you've got a handle on the basics, why not explore different painting styles to find one that truly resonates with you? From the fluidity of watercolours to the texture of oil paint, each painting medium has its own unique qualities. You may also want to experiment with various styles such as abstract, impressionism or realism.

Our Perth painting workshops offer a variety of mediums that cater to these diverse interests. For instance, if you're fascinated by the vibrant colours and dynamic brushwork of oil paintings, our oil painting for beginners course could be just what you're looking for. Join Shannan Nicole Artist in East Victoria Park as she guides you through the basics of oil painting and helps you create beautiful, still-life paintings. Or perhaps you'd like to delve into the world of textured art with Sunshine Lane Australia in Maylands. Pick up a palette knife and learn how to create fun textures and depth on your canvas. Whatever your style preference may be, there's a workshop designed just for you!

Embrace your artistic journey

Learning how to paint is not merely about acquiring new skills but also about embarking on an artistic journey towards self-discovery and personal growth. Remember that every painter started as a beginner once—and it's through practice, patience and persistence that they honed their craft. Don’t focus on mistakes but instead view each painting as an opportunity to learn and grow. Celebrate your progress and take pride in your improvements—no matter how small they might seem. 

Plus, don't compare your artworks or progress with others. Art is subjective and highly personal; what matters most is that it brings you joy and fulfilment. As Picasso once said: "The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls." So keep exploring, keep experimenting and keep painting! After all, it's not just about creating art—it's about enjoying the process along the way.

Find a lifelong community at a painting class

Paint and sip classes

One of the best things about joining a painting workshop in Perth is becoming part of a vibrant community. You'll meet fellow beginners, share experiences, exchange ideas and perhaps even make new friends! Painting in a group setting can be incredibly inspiring as it allows you to see different perspectives and approaches. Beyond learning how to paint, these art workshops also offer valuable lessons in patience and mindfulness. Painting encourages you to slow down, focus on the present moment and appreciate the beauty around you.

These painting classes in Perth are also not just one-off events but stepping stones towards lifelong learning. As your skills grow, more painting workshops are waiting for you. The journey from beginner to accomplished artist is an exciting one filled with endless possibilities!

Learning how to paint can be an incredibly rewarding experience—especially when guided by passionate artists within a supportive community. With plenty of painting workshops available in Perth, you have everything you need to kickstart your artistic journey. So why wait? Grab a brush, get creative and let your inner artist shine!
