"Carla's teaching style is calm and clear and the emphasis is very much on exploration and play.
I think this course is ideal for those who are new to exploring abstract botanical painting and who want a project to follow. Equally, I’m certain seasoned artists who are looking for new ideas to integrate into their work would find this course inspiring.
This course is filled to the brim with brilliant tips that will enable you to explore a wide range of mixed media techniques."

"Way out my comfort zone of tiny, neat ink drawings - I created a huge (for me!) A3 mixed media extravaganza in a day going large, loose and layered with Carla and her Abstract Botanical course. It's on my gotta-do-that-again list! Loved it!"

"I love Carla’s workshops , she has this calm & gentle way of teaching with clear instruction . She is confidence giving & I love her unique style of work .. the adding of layers brings in so many dimensions which you can achieve even if you're a complete beginner . I will definitely do another workshop. Thanks Carla"

"I have now been on two of Carla’s workshops and have enjoyed each immensely! It really doesn’t matter if you are a a beginner or more experienced. Carla is generous with her knowledge, very patient and her enthusiasm is contagious."

I thoroughly enjoyed Carla's abstract botanical course. Through guided tuition and demonstrations, it was broken down into stages where I was able to build upon the layers of work, ending with a beautiful finished piece (or two) of art. I loved learning about mark making and creating layers whilst being given the permission to be free, break the rules and take risks whilst having fun with paint and inks. Such an inspirational and thought provoking course."

"Carla's abstract botanical course was wonderfully relaxing. Carla is generous in sharing her knowledge and skills. Her enthusiasm for exploring colour and design is inspiring. I'd thoroughly recommend the course for anyone wanting to try something new and mindful."
Hello, I’m Carla
I'm a full-time artist who used to be obsessed with creating intricately controlled artwork.
Over the years I've learnt that playing & experimenting is my happy place. I'm having so much fun I don't worry about the results anymore.
I'm passionate about helping others free themselves from perceived rules & fully enjoy the process!
