Welcome
In 2018 I moved my studio and teaching business from a train carriage in Samford Village back to my home studio in beautiful Cedar Creek. The new studio is a joy to work and teach in, with amazing views of Mount Lawson and the surrounding bush and paddocks.
I am so excited that you can now book and pay securely for all classes on line through this website.
Not everyone can make it to this fabulous part of the world so now you can choose a Guided Painting Class, to download and paint at home.
During lockdown I worked really hard on them and I now have around 20 classes available with how to videos and narration, so you can see me paint it too.

Welcome to The Art Train
I'm Helen Evans, I have been teaching and making art for many years.
I believe that art and creativity are essential to a well-balanced life. Being creative enhances our spiritual, emotional and mental well being.
I believe everyone has a unique creative spark. You need help to nurture it and then to flourish. My philosophy is to give you absolutely all the information you need to make it happen.
The Art Train is a studio, gallery and classroom. I have weekly classes for adults during school term times. I also run Guided Painting sessions, Arty Parties, Corporate and Well being events and specialist workshops for adults.
The Art Train began in a renovated train carriage in Samford Village, north west of Brisbane in Queensland. In late 2018 circumstances changed and I moved the business back to my home studio. It's bigger, cooler and so tranquil.
A selection of my own work is in the gallery below. All is for sale
