Description

Supportive Studio Afternoon

This studio afternoon is designed for those wanting dedicated time to work on their own art practice in a friendly, encouraging environment — whether you’re preparing work for the exhibition or simply making space to create. With a minimum of five participants, the session offers a lovely balance of independent making and guided support.

Bring your own project and materials — you might be finishing or refining exhibition pieces, getting work presentation-ready (such as matting or final touches), starting something new, or exploring different mediums. Julie will move around the studio, offering individual guidance, gentle mentoring, and technical advice throughout the afternoon.

You’ll enjoy the energy of a shared creative space while still receiving personal support whenever you need it. This session is suitable for all experience levels, from beginners to developing artists.

BRING: All your art materials (and anything specific needed for exhibition preparation, if relevant)
PROVIDED: Studio space, limited shared materials, coffee, tea, and biscuits ☕🍪

NOTES:

The Studio is above the Golf Club building at Quamby Estate (see photo reference).
Park your car in the car park on the left as you drive in.
There are 17 stairs to the studio.
There is one bathroom downstairs.
Your booking will be confirmed once payment is received.
To make the most of the session, we need a minimum of five participants. If numbers are lower, Julie will be in touch the day before with options — so you won’t be left hanging.

Testimonials

Thank you so very much for a lovely morning at your studio last Friday. You were so kind and considerate with your lesson. I felt so pleased that I took the plunge and tried something completely new. I left feeling a huge sense of confidence and excited to show my children the drawing foundational basics. Warm regards.Angela Shepherd

A big thank you to Julie McDonald Artist for guiding me through my first ever art class. It was welcoming, fun, interesting, challenging and there was cake and cups of tea and a stunning location.

Julie's paintings adorn walls throughout our home and all are very different in their subject and medium. A particular favourite of ours is a watercolour of our staffy dog as a pup. Julie has captured his personality perfectly. We would highly recommend a viewing of Julie's collection.

John & Cathy Gooding -

I bought a painting from Julie at one of her exhibitions and the colours are amazing. A very talented local artist.

Julie Valentine -

Julie thank you for such a wonderful class yesterday. I went from stick figures to a landscape and wanting to buy charcoal. It was a fun afternoon in beautiful surroundings and practical steps that I can use to continue my journey.

Lesley Bennett -

We have two of Julie's beautiful paintings and they are exquisite. They have become much loved features in our home. The precision in her brushwork makes each artwork come to life and everyone comments on how lovely they are.

Julie's art is so expressive. I've bought a number of pieces so far. I love the different styles and in particular, how Julie beautifully, and expertly, captures the moment and character.

Nicky Strang -

Julie had the ability to give me the confidence to do something I felt I couldn't do in a comfortable atmosphere.

Sandra Cox -

I purchased one of Julie's beautiful floral paintings, which now hangs on my bedroom wall. It looks so real, I could almost reach out and touch the silky flowers and perfectly formed leaves. Julie has such a talent in the way she captures the spirit of whatever she is painting xx
