Hello there...
Meet your qualified Art Club Hub coaches.
Leah Haynes
Art Coach
I'm one of the founders of The Art Club Hub.
I studied Bachelor of Fine Arts and Diploma of Education.
I specialize in acrylic and oil painting and have been creating artwork since I could hold a pencil. I'm also the owner of Mia & Talbot, a gift hamper and candle business where I use my creative flair to create colourful candles and giftboxes.
In addition to creating my own range of products, I manage multiple websites & social media accounts.
I'm passionate about creating art and inspiring others to do the same. I love exploring new creative outlets & techniques and just having a go at new things.
My favourite colours are ALL the colours...but I have a soft spot for green.
I want to create the club that I would have loved to be part of as a child!
I'm excited to create Art with you!
Erin Robinson
Art Coach
Hello friends! I'm Erin, one of the founders of The Art Club Hub.
I'm a full-time artist specialising in watercolour art and a qualified teacher with a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Teaching. I also have my own business called Artbrush. Artbrush is my creative outlet where I get to explore my love of all things art and combine it with my love of animals and botanicals, creating beautiful fun prints, cards and giftware. I also have years of graphic design experience working with businesses to develop their brand identities through custom illustrations and designs.
I am passionate about teaching and inspiring others to create art for the sheer joy of it! I love making happy art, and I can't wait to help you have fun creating works that you can be proud of.
Let's go play in the art room!
Blake Curran
Art Coach
I'm Blake, an art coach with nearly 20 years experience as a primary school teacher. I have also studied
Cert III in Visual Arts and am currently studing a Diploma of Creative Arts and Health.
I’m a huge Disney animation fan (you might catch me humming along to your favorite Disney tunes). My favourite artist is Hans Heysen, his landscapes are spectacular!
My favourite colours are blue and green.
When I’m not in the Art Room, you’ll find me hanging out with my two awesome kids (ages 8 and 10), getting my hands dirty in the garden, or relaxing at the beach - my absolute happy place. I also have a soft spot for wombats and black cockatoos (they're just so cool, right?!)
All Art Club Hub coaches hold a current Working With Children Check.
