Join us at The Farm Byron Bay this October for the Bloom Art Experience — a full-day workshop blending flower harvesting, still life painting, and long-table dining, hosted by Brisbane artists Kate Quinn and Emily Day.

You’ll start the day in the flower fields, picking your own blooms to use as inspiration. Then, in the relaxed setting of The Farm’s Queenslander-style farmhouse, you’ll learn how to paint a floral still life in acrylics or oils, guided step-by-step by Kate and Emily. With just 16 participants per day, you’ll enjoy personalised attention, creative encouragement, and the chance to connect with like-minded people.

WHAT YOU’LL EXPERIENCE:

• Harvest your own field-grown flowers with Jess from Poppy and Fern
• Learn to paint a floral still life in acrylics or oils — with creative guidance from Kate and Emily
• Enjoy barista coffee and pastries from The Three Blue Ducks for morning tea
• Share a delicious lunch at the Three Blue Ducks restaurant
• Take home your artwork, a goody bag, and a day’s worth of new skills and memories
