Service Description

Brisbane artists Kate Quinn and Emily Day, and Central Queensland artist Aliesha Hobson, are hosting a divine art experience in Yeppoon in June 2025. You will enjoy a very special day of art, flowers, and food, as we watch the waves roll in at Seaspray Motel, Cooee Bay, Yeppoon, in Central Queensland. Seaspray is offering a special rate for Bloom students who may wish to stay a night or two, and make a weekend out of this Bloom Art Experience. Running on either Saturday the 14th or Sunday the 15th June, from 9am-5pm, you will learn how to paint a simple floral still life in a small group, in a relaxed and encouraging environment. Suitable for beginners, as well as those with some hobby painting experience, you will spend a day learning new artistic skills while chatting and laughing with new or old friends. To start the day, we will gather on the grass under a marquee, metres from the sea, to commence our painting. At lunchtime we will put the brushes down and enjoy a delicious catered meal. After class, we will pop a bottle and have a drink at sunset overlooking the ocean. Emily and Kate will spread the small class of maximum 16 students into 'acrylics' and 'oils' painting groups, and will provide creative guidance in a non-judgemental, kind and supportive way. If you book with friends we will make sure you are seated together, and if you are coming on your own (many people do), we will ensure you are seated next to a friendly group and get extra special care! Aliesha, our guest artist, will float between both groups, ensuring everyone gets to learn from her in-depth skills and knowledge on creating a beautiful floral still life. Emily and Kate, look forward to welcoming you to a unique day in one of the prettiest spots on Central Queensland's coast. This Bloom Art Experience costs $540 per person for a full day, and includes all materials, morning tea, lunch, drinks during and after class, as well as a goody bag to take home. A note about cancellations: Classes are fully refundable upon request up to 30 days prior to the date you have booked. This allows us to offer your place to another customer. Classes cancelled in the 30 days leading up to the event are not refundable, unless we are able to fill your spot with someone on a waiting list - and in this case we are more than happy to refund you. If in the unlikely event the class needs to be cancelled due to host/artist illness or other unexpected event, we will fully refund participants.
