The Power of One Workshop 🎨

Can a single art workshop really make a difference? Absolutely.

While long-term classes build deep technical habits, a one-off holiday workshop is like a "creative spark" for a child’s brain.

🎨It’s a creative environment where the goal is to explore, learn and try and that’s often where the magic happens.

Here is why one session is worth👌

✔️The "Aha!" Moment: Sometimes, all it takes is one specific tip—like how to blend two colors or see a complex shape as a combination simple elements.
That "aha!" moment can change how a child looks at the world forever.

✔️A Confidence Boost: Completing a project from start to finish in just one or two hours gives kids an immediate sense of accomplishment. They walk out the door holding a physical reminder that they are capable of creating something beautiful.

✔️Screen-Free Connection: In a world of digital noise, a workshop offers a rare "analog" escape. It’s a tactile, sensory experience that grounded and calms the mind.

✔️New Perspectives: Trying a new medium or style for the first time can unlock a hidden passion. It’s the perfect way to "test drive" their curiosity.

Whether they are budding masters or just looking for some messy fun, one workshop is all it takes to plant the seed of a lifelong love for art.

Ever wonder why oil pastels are a staple in every young artist's kit?

🎨It’s not just about the vibrant colors (though we love those too!); it’s about the sensory experience.

Unlike crayons, oil pastels are buttery, rich, and responsive. For kids, they provide instant gratification—a tiny bit of pressure creates a bold explosion of color!

They are the perfect bridge between drawing and painting, allowing children to blend with their fingers and truly "feel" the art they are creating.

Lately, our students have been putting these tools to the test!

In our recent sessions, the children didn't just draw "toys"; they captured dimension. By layering creamy ochres and deep shadows, those 3D drawings started to pop off the page!

❓WHY Iris Art is Different 🌟

At Iris Art, we don't believe you're "too young" for the basics. We dive deep into the fundamentals from day one! Even our youngest groups are mastering:

• Shading: Learning how light hits an object.
• Volume: Making flat shapes look real.
• Tones: Understanding the transition from dark to light.

We give kids the professional vocabulary and techniques they need to turn their imagination into high-quality art!

Hi, my dear friends! 👋

I’m Irina Iris—Artist, Art Teacher, Creative Therapist, and the founder of Iris Art Studio 🎨.

Formerly an architect, I moved to Australia in 2008 and began a new chapter sharing the joy of art with people.

My art teaching journey started in community schools, then moved to my home studio, and has now grown into the public space I dreamed of.

Why did I choose art as a career?

In our digital world, we are slowly losing the "classical rules" of painting and drawing. I opened my studio to keep these traditions alive. I teach the foundational magic of representing the world using real paint and brushes. 🖌️

My mission is to ensure we don't lose this wonderful human ability. Whether it’s mastering 3D forms, color theory, or composition, I help you build skills that last a lifetime.

Art as a sanctuary 🌿

Beyond technical skills, I am a Creative Therapist. I’ve seen firsthand how art brings emotional balance and harmony. My studio is a place where everyone—from children to adults—can feel:

• Accepted and understood.
• Calm and happy.
• Free to be themselves

What’s happening at the studio?
We offer regular art classes, creative workshops, and art parties.

Whether you want a professional foundation for your child’s future or a beautiful new hobby for yourself, there is a place for you here.

Creative people are the heart of our society. Let’s keep that heart beating together!

📍 Visit us at: U5, 17-19 Hill End Road, Doonside, NSW 2767

Besides the studio, I'm a fitness and yoga lover, a mother of three, married to an architect, and an owner of two cats. My favorite medium is watercolor, and I can't wait to meet you and start creating!
