Just the kind of feedback I would hope for from my classes at hobartartgallery.com

Hi Philip,

This is Luna, I joined your class last Friday night. Thank you so much for the class – I really enjoyed it. It was such a relaxing time, and I felt so good just focusing on the painting. What I loved most is that you didn’t just teach painting, you also shared philosophy and how art reflects life. That really stayed with me.

I wanted to let you know I’ve been practicing. Please see the attached picture I made at home:)

I will definitely come back. Take care!

I loved painting with quilters from across Australia over the weekend. Most hadn't picked up a brush since high school and the results speak for themselves.

A little story about me in this month's Hobart magazine

In our June edition, we sat down with Phillip McKay, the founder and gallerist at Hobart Art Gallery. He's artist in residence at the Hotel Grand Chancellor Hobart where he also runs an art school. We talked about what it takes to have your work shown in his gallery, and why he believes no painting of his is ever really finished.👨‍🎨

A descent into madness and chaos last night, as hoped for. Painting the abstract with the Dodges Ferry crew. And a birthday celebrated as well.
