The Fire Within: Unleash Your Inner Passion

“The Fire Within” painting workshop isn’t just about making art, it’s about sparking something powerful inside you and bringing it to life on the canvas. This unique experience invites you to explore deep emotion and personal energy, transforming them into bold, expressive imagery. Reignite your passion and rediscover a sense of creative purpose.

Join Melbourne-based abstract artist Angelina Mirabito for a transformative, hands-on palette knife painting workshop where your inner fire takes shape in vibrant colour.

Through guided breathwork, intuitive colour reflection, and the liberating technique of palette knife painting, you’ll explore how feeling and movement translate into textured, dynamic artworks. This session offers a space to release, reflect, and reconnect with the creative force within you beyond words, beyond limits.

Whether you’re new to painting or looking to deepen your practice, this intimate workshop (limited to 12 participants) is designed to support your creative freedom and self-expression.

  • Breathwork and colour reflection to open your intuitive senses

  • Guided palette knife painting techniques to build texture and movement

  • Space to express your primal, emotional self through colour and form

  • Completion of a bold 40x50cm artwork to take home

By the end of the session, you’ll walk away with:

  • Your own expressive 40x50cm painting
