Artist & Educator

Iā€™m Jess Newitt an Australian artist living in Bundaberg, Queensland.

Formally trained with Bachelor of Visual Arts and Bachelor of Education, I have19 years of art teaching and experience. In 2021 I found time to focus on my own artistic practice which developed into a business that includes original artworks, commissions, courses, workshops and products.

I have an intuitive approach to art making which is both experimental and expressive. I work with mixed media and love to experiment with layering, colour and pattern. My creative flow is inspired by the beauty of nature, music, unconscious emotions and exploring the vibrational energy of colour.

I have just finished studying art therapy and I see art as a modality for healing, creating change and self-expression.

I currently offer a variety of workshops that focus on intuitive arts practices.

Uncork Your Imagination is a three-hour relaxed workshop where you explore background techniques, mark making skills and then you can create your own original work on canvas.

Whimsical Watercolours is my workshop where you explore how to use a variety of drawing and painting media in an abstract and colourful way.

My Abstract Botanical Course runs for four consecutive weeks and explores how to create layered abstract floral forms, colour theory and composition skills.
