Art School Co.

This art school is a little unconventional…

We have two core beliefs; That human beings are essentially creative and that living creatively is what helps us all feel most alive.

Our school is about growing individuals through the practice of creativity…

We believe that anyone, at any age, can learn the techniques to make incredible art, and for over 20 years we’ve watched this happen time and time again.

We want you to find ‘your unique way of seeing and making art.’ We’ve learned this needs to happen through both one on one teaching and in an environment with others who are seeking their own creativity.

We’re a bunch of misfits. We aren’t a specific type of person. We’re young and old, loud and quiet, beginners and professionals.

We fail together, we learn together and were thankful for the opportunity to have an artistic space that allows us to be who we are.

Hi! My name is Jessica Le Clerc. I am the principal and founder of the Sunshine Coast Art & Imagination School and I am passionate about teaching others how to find their own voice and creativity through imagination and fine arts.

I have been teaching art for 20 years. I have no formal art qualifications (sorry mum and dad). I have my own artistic practice outside of teaching and have been a finalist in some of Australia’s most prestigious art prizes. My husband helps me run this school (behind the scenes) and together we try and balance all of this and 4 kids.

So if all of this sounds good, we would love to have you enrol and join our little art community!

And if you have any questions, just let me know.
