Previous Classes
Wright's Portrait Workshop is limited to a maximum of four artists at a time. Class sizes are intentionally kept small to ensure each participant receives individual guidance, personalised feedback, and plenty of one-on-one support throughout the workshop. This intimate learning environment allows answers to questions at every stage of the process and help develop skills with confidence.
The portrait painting workshop held at the Caloundra Art Centre Association, 5 North Street, Caloundra, Sunshine Coast is currently open for enrollment. Enquire to join the waiting list, for additional questions fill the form below
