Melton Library Seniors Week Budgie Life Paintin workshop

Budgie Life Painting Workshops – Booking Availability

I am excited to introduce an engaging workshop opportunity for your library: the Budgie Life Painting Workshop! This interactive session combines art and nature, offering a unique experience to explore the beauty of budgies through life drawing and acrylic painting.

 

My name is Vanessa White, and I am both a professional artist and an award-winning budgie breeder. My passion for the arts is deeply intertwined with my love for nature, and through my workshops, I aim to inspire others to connect with their creativity. With years of experience teaching art to individuals of all ages, I strive to create visually stimulating and engaging sessions that encourage artistic exploration and the development of personal techniques. My artwork has been exhibited nationally and internationally in a variety of venues, and I am dedicated to making the world of art both accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
