A Locals Afternoon in the Mapleton Studio

Workshop Details
3 December 2026
10am–1.30pm
Pear Tree Gallery, Mapleton
Limited to 10 participants
All materials provided

This workshop is for the Local’s of the Sunshine Coast. Especially with busy mums in mind, that can’t commit to a full day or two day intensive.

Join Lauren Jones for an intimate half-day oil painting session held in her private Mapleton studio.

These relaxed afternoon workshops are designed for locals wanting to spend time painting, slowing down creatively, and exploring observational painting in a welcoming studio environment.

Participants will be guided through Lauren’s expressive alla prima approach to colour, composition, brushwork, and painterly mark-making. Take home a mini oil painting.

The afternoon includes all artist materials, refreshments, and a shared grazing table within the studio.

With only ten places available, these sessions are intentionally personal and offered only occasionally throughout the year.
