Diana Casey - Watercolour
I have been painting and teaching in watercolour for over 30 years. My inspiration comes from nature and the beautiful Mornington Penninsula where I live. I enjoy passing on the skills and techniques I've leaned and delight in my students successes.
Lisa Murphy- Drawing, pen and ink
I am a self taught artist with over 30 years teaching experience. Nature is the greatest influence in my artwork and I'm drawn to the exquisite details and beauty that nature provides. I consider having the opportunity to teach others something that I'm passionate about, a great privilege. My art work sells nationally and internationally.
