I’ve just recently started art classes with Yvonne Carroll after a Sip & Paint introduction to painting.
I have never thought about doing any art as I believed I couldn’t even draw a stick figure. Yvonne has changed all that. Her classes are amazing; she’s very encouraging and I also love the social interaction with the other students… I would thoroughly recommend Yvonnes classes.

YCStudio, a studio in the PS Buildings Fremantle. As you step up and down the history worn steps, you wonder what petticoats slid over the steps or heavy boots leading to the wonderful art space that Yvonne’s studio provides.
You’re lead through positive thinking, and welcomed equally with people, all of whom are just soaking up the creativity and skills of drawing, colour and mixing that Yvonne exudes.
Who knew I would actually develop my art, let alone sell artwork in these last three years.
Great, atmosphere and welcoming friends that I now see as ‘my Freo community – my happy place.’

My art journey has been a lucky one because of working with Yvonne. Her forte is developing an individuals ‘artistic style’ at an appropriate pace. The environment at PSAS and classmates are inspiring too.

Yvonne Carroll has been my art teacher for over two years now. I came to her as someone with zero art experience but with a ‘better-late-than-never’ belief that I’d like to give art a try. This experience could have lasted two or three weeks, as do so many ideas, but thanks to Yvonne’s perseverance more than mine, I now can’t imagine life without the creative outlet of art.
Walking in to Yvonne’s studio at Pakenham St Art Space, I was immediately drawn to the vibrancy and energy of her artwork, something that is bound to inspire any student who enters her studio, viewing her twirling figures coming to life on canvas, inspired by her previous life as a dancer.
Yvonne’s passion for art is matched by her engaging personality, her immense patience for novice art students like myself and her ability to see positivity in every brush stroke that her students put to canvas. Yvonne has the perfect temperament and personality that will bring the best from any art student. She provides the right amount of guidance without directing you to paint in any particular way. Rather, Yvonne lets her students explore and develop their own style.
Thank you Yvonne for helping me discover such a rich and rewarding creative outlet.
