Creative Connections Brisbane

Do you enjoy art or crafting? If you're a Brisbane artist or maker, join us to meet other creatives and make new friends!

You are invited to join the Club Yellow event as a non-member for only $15.

Just click the "Find Tickets" link in this event to grab your spot now.

If you haven't attended a Club Yellow event before, be assured that all skill levels are welcome as we have a relaxed chat about all things arty to inspire each other to live our best ‘creative’ life.
It is optional, but we would love you to bring some of your artwork (or photos of what you do) for an informal "show and tell."

This event also includes a 'SWAP MEET' where participants are encouraged to bring any art supplies (new or pre-loved), they no longer want and offer them for FREE to the people attending. There is no obligation to contribute, but you might pick up something useful from the donations. It's a great way to feel less guilty about unwanted purchases when you want to declutter your art space.

As the founder of Studio Yellow, I'm excited to help creatives connect and thrive through these Club Yellow Networking events.

Please note: (Refreshments are available for purchase at great club prices.)

Formerly known as “Little Books – Mixed Media Keepsake (Pocketbooks)”

While learning drawing, painting and collage techniques, you will also be introduced to the concept of mindfulness and ways to intuitively use Art materials to creatively celebrate ‘being present’ in your world. These ‘little books’ are the perfect vessel for exploring the concept of gratefulness.

By the end of the session, you will have finished your first ‘little-book’ that can be saved as a keepsake for yourself or given as a gift to a loved one. All abilities will be catered for, and every book can be unique. I love to give participants the freedom to choose colours and symbols that are individual and meaningful so you can create something personal OR you can copy my ideas and examples. You’ll discover how these gorgeous miniature books can be adapted to suit other themes, and how easy it will be to create more in the future, at home. Absolute beginners welcome.

What’s included:

1. A complete ‘mixed-media’ learning experience.
2. Step-by-step instructions.
3. Organisational ideas and advice on resources you need to set up your home studio.
4. Tea/coffee and light snacks.

7. Your very own ‘little book’ for you to take home.

Introduce yourself to the mystery and magic of using watercolour paints. In just one session you will fall in love with this easy to set up and easy to clean up Art medium that gives instant results. You’ll have the opportunity to practise all techniques before applying your new skills to make an artwork I’m sure you’ll be proud of. I will demonstrate techniques, give individual guidance and discuss the pros and cons of the variety of paints, papers and brushes that are on the market. Watercolour is the perfect medium for busy people because you don’t need to wash up every time you need to stop working. This also makes Watercolour a very economical painting solution because you never need to wash leftover paint down the sink. With brilliant colours, translucent washes and other exciting effects you can use Watercolours are both portable and non-toxic, just right for Travel Sketching, Art Journaling, Illustration, Cartooning, Graphic Design and Fine Art.
