Painting Workshop – Part One

Join Belong Club for our painting workshop where Paola will demonstrate how to work through painting a gorgeous cow named Daisy. This can be done with acrylics, pastels or even fine crayons.

Paint a vivid, cow with daisies as Paola guides you through a variety of accessible materials. Build dimensional form as you create your own unique animal image. Learn to depict distinctive fur texture and bring the excitement of vibrant wildlife to life. Paola will be happy to answer any questions you have to get started or move forward on your painting journey.

You can finish off the painting with Paola in the second workshop. Whether you’re looking for a unique gift for a friend’s birthday, or you want to indulge in a fun activity, or try a new art project or painting style from the comfort and convenience of your home. You’ll finish feeling creatively inspired, and ready to keep practicing your new skills.

About the Presenter – Paola Matthews

Paola is an emerging artist, based in Manly on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Paola is self-taught and proficient in both pastels and acrylics. She enjoys bringing movement to canvas and her favourite subjects are animals (especially soulful horses), musicians in the midst of playing, and wind or moving water. Paola’s vision is to entice the audience to feel the movement and allow it to resonate within.

Paola has been exhibited for a charity initiative that partnered with the United Nations Association of Australia and has also exhibited in local establishments. Paola was also commissioned by SBS for two portrait paintings, which were then exhibited for a series on “Inspirational Women”. One of Paola’s paintings was chosen for “Cabaret in the Glen”, the art exhibition in 2017.
