This place is the perfect place for those interested in developing artist skills. My child has attended classes at This Artful Life over the last few years, both during term and holiday programs. The skills and techniques she has been taught and the types of artwork she has created have really helped her develop as an artist and her high school grades in art also reflect this. Katrina is very thoughtful and supportive of the children attending, and the studio is simply gorgeous. If your chail or you are interested in art, this place is the place to be!

My Daughter H has been attending Katrina's art class since 2022. She loves her weekly class and won't have it any other way. Katrina is kind, encouraging and the most nurturing art teacher. She brings out the best in H - giving her room to express herself artistically and at the same time, guiding her to improve her artistic skills. As a parent, I truely appreciate the effort Katrina puts into planning her classes and not to mention, organising a public art exhibition for her students to showcase their art work.
Our daughter attended classes over a 7 year period, during which time we were constantly thrilled with Katrina's thoughtful, supportive & constructive teaching style. Our daughter is now studying Fine Art at University, & we are grateful to Katrina for her guidance & encouragement.
