This is a FREE two-hour art workshop for high school students being run by the talented artist Aksara Harriram, No previous experience required. Join artist Aksara Harriram, the creative force behind her art series Surreal Estate, for a vibrant journey into the mind’s eye.

Alchemy of Self-Expression is a full-day creative immersion exploring identity, creativity, and the transformation that happens when we allow ourselves to be seen. Hosted by Charmain Rose Wallace and presented through The Shamanic Collective Australia, this retreat invites participants into a playful and reflective space where art, creativity, and self-expression meet. Throughout the day we will move through a series of creative activations designed to explore expression through form, pattern, and transformation. Participants will experiment with hands-on creative processes, explore reflective mirror work, and take part in a collaborative photoshoot to capture their creations. This experience is not about perfection — it is about curiosity, exploration, and witnessing yourself and others in a supportive creative environment. A professional photographer may be present to capture portraits and moments from the day. Participants will have the opportunity to receive images from the experience. This retreat welcomes people of all genders, backgrounds, and creative levels. There is no gender agenda here — this space celebrates individual expression and creative freedom. Whether you are an artist, creative, curious explorer, or simply someone wanting to reconnect with your expressive self, you are warmly invited. Spaces are limited to keep the experience intimate. Come create, reflect, and witness the alchemy of your own self-expression.
WELCOME to another Watercolour Painting Workshop!! I have been loving using Watercolours with my pen art & have been using watercolours for about 6 years now! This Workshop is for you if you have always wanted to use watercolour and feel a bit overwhelmed not knowing where to start OR want to learn watercolour in a vibrant way! In this Workshop I will be sharing the ways in which I love to use watercolour- how to layer to create vibrancy & how to give your art that glowy/ galaxy-like feel! I love to use watercolour with pen outlines, so I will provide a mix of stencil guides and easy to follow pen shapes throughout the workshop. This workshop is very guided and is suitable for beginner to advanced creatives! (So even if you haven’t done much art before- you will be very supported in this workshop!)
