I was very happy with my final artwork. I would recommend these classes to anyone wanting to spend some time developing their art and picking up new skills."

About Katie Roberts
      Artist and Teacher


 

 

Welcome, so glad to see you here! 

Yes, I am a professional artist with a passion for sharing my knowledge in a seriously fun and fabulously informative way.
I work from my home studio in leafy Melbourne.

Art is essential to my life, since I felt my calling to be an artist at aged four! 

 

For over a decade I have been teaching art in the community and at university. I have a unique approach to art and art teaching, I believe everyone can learn to draw! 
 

One of my major projects is about the history and environment of the Yarra River in Melbourne – you can have a look at more about my artwork over here. 


Students say that I create a really safe and encouraging space, that the class culture is wonderful and it is not long before they feel comfortable sharing and exploring art together. an encouraging and friendly approach. I teach in a fun, challenging and experimental way, while imparting a strong knowledge of traditional techniques and skills as well.If you would like to know how they feel from their words directly go here

Qualifications – I have them and I'm not afraid to use them!

​

Unlike many art teachers online I know my stuff. I was taught by some of the best!

I hold a Masters of Fine Art and a Honours Degree in Fine Art majoring in Drawing from RMIT where I studied under renowned drawing teacher Godwin Bradbeer. I have been life drawing for 25 years. I have held 15 solo exhibitions, participated in over 30 group show and my artwork in held in many private collections. I am fulfilling my dreams and my calling as an artist and I have some of that magic to share with you. 

 

I have taught hundreds of students and I know I can help you learn to draw too!  

​

I look forward to creating together soon, if. you can't come to a class in person, the online one is a good option. Please don't be shy, feel free to reach out to me.
