LEARN new Art Tips and Tricks gather INSPIRATION from other artists View sample Browse art categoriesTestimonialsOne of my difficulties in organising workshops, is fitting in with the calendar of workshops across Australia for the availability of tutors, and then following that, the students require the workshops to be spread out for their convenience. blueBanksia provides that service. At my recent Dookie Art Attack I was more than happy to promote blueBanksia by providing a flyer in my welcome pack, as the service I have received has been very professional.
I have watched with interest the growing number of students and tutors that have joined up to be part of this great service. Also special was Dookie Art Attack being featured in the May newsletter. Consequently, my June Dookie Art Attack had 2 students that became aware of the workshops via the web site. This I felt topped off the situation nicely.
But it hasn't ended there. The offer has been put forward to feature a tutor in my forthcoming new venture, Dookie Art Attack, Signature. The support is ongoing.

I just want to send my hearty congratulations and many thanks for what you have both done! This is a remarkable site: very attractive and so readily explored. You have made a great contribution by doing this. As Vice President of the Artists Society of Canberra I am very pleased to see listing of our workshop offerings. I will be visiting this site often, and will be drawing the attention of our members to this site. Best wishes for the future. blueBanksia is amazing! Thank you for the passion and commitment you have obviously channeled into this marvelous website. blueBanksia is a wonderful website for artists and art lovers, it is unique in providing information that both informs and inspires. Again - many thanks for this amazing website. Kind regards Thanks for letting me know about your article. It is beautifully written and we really appreciate your help in trying to promote Bundanon to the public. We hope you have many happy returns in the future. I'll certainly let staff here know about your website. Just thought I would drop you a line to say how much I enjoy blueBanksia. It is really great for Tutors and Students alike. Look forward to meeting you one day. Firstly, congratulation on your initiative and good work in running the blueBanksia website for art workshops. It is certainly very convenient for artists and teachers alike and no doubt would be firing along already for you - and I along with many others wish you well in its progress. I've just spend a wonderful half hour exploring your website. It inspires and is beautifully done. I hadn't realised John Caldwell gave workshops. I've enjoyed his work for years so it was great to read about Heather's time there. I can't imagine how much time you must have spent getting this site up and running. Congratulations on the vision and carrying it through. Well done.
