Workshops
Looking for creative art workshops, community engagement workshops, youth mural mentorship workshops, abstract painting workshops and corporate creative workshops in Perth and in your regional town?
Working with a broad section of the community including youth, I design and facilitate creative art workshops with a difference. Participants require no previous artistic experience or ability. I teach a broad range of skills from the basic principals of design, form, line and colour theory, through to composition and how to create balanced designs.
My mural-based outcome workshops offer far more than a standard ‘paint by numbers’ experience. Participants learn and leave with the creative skills to enable creation of their own artistic projects. I do not teach people to simply replicate a painting, nor my own style. Through a series of exercises, participants unlock their own inner creative style, which they then use to create artwork unique to their individuality.
As a mother of two, I am passionate about working with young people. Creative learning workshops are an excellent outlet, assisting with mental health and general wellbeing. Guiding young people in the development of artistic skills which builds their self confidence and self esteem is truly rewarding. I work with developing urban street-style artworks and mixed media using aerosol and acrylic paint.
If you’re a school looking for an inspiring creative workshop run by a known Perth artist, please get in touch. I tailor content to suit anticipated outcomes. For mural-based outcomes, I facilitate students through the ideas phase, themes, design, composition before they learn how to transfer small scale artwork into large scale mural art. Finishing with a range of paint brush and/or aerosol spray can skills. Leaving your school with an artwork which is unique to your school and students who feel pride and ownership of the work. Aspiring artists are then armed with the knowledge and skills to apply to their own mural projects.
In addition, I design and facilitate creative activities for festivals and events such as live painting (by me) and painting that the community participates in.

What my clients say
'I’ve had the pleasure of working with Sioux on several public art commissions over the past eight years, and she has consistently demonstrated professionalism, creativity, and dedication. Sioux is highly organised and deeply committed to delivering high-quality artistic outcomes that resonate with and enrich the community. Every place she has contributed her work to is undeniably better for her involvement.'
Kristy Gough
Senior Creative Producer, Apparatus
‘Sioux Tempestt approaches all aspects of a project with thoroughnes and professionalism: from developing and presenting a creative concept, to skilfully applying paint and on to providing documentation to complete a project. Sioux and her team have been a pleasure to work with, and the Public Transport Authority and our patrons have been delighted with her colourful artwork, Currents (2025), which has transformed the underpasses at Currambine Station.’
Duncan McKay
Project Coordinator – Public Art | Customer Strategy and Communications, PTA
‘I’ve worked with Sioux on numerous projects since 2013. She is a highly professional, reliable, and adaptable artist who brings creativity and care to every project. Sioux has a powerful artistic vision and a thoughtful approach to each site. Her abstract murals are uniquely tailored to their surroundings and quickly become much-loved features of the community, enriching public spaces in bold and inspiring ways. Recently, I gave her full creative freedom on a footpath mural, and the result was vibrant, unexpected, and entirely successful - a fabulous addition to the space.’
