Lily Mae Martin is an artist, mother of a two-year old and writer who has moved from Berlin to Wales to Melbourne to Berlin and back again: all within the last four years. Phew. She keeps two amazing blogs, one to update her online art portfolio, and the other to document the surprising beauty found in everyday domesticity.

In Berlin Domestic, Lily actively observes her life as a mother and artist, and uploads sketches of household objects like laundry baskets, stacked dishes, crockery cupboards and rumpled tablecloths. On July 20, she will be presenting a one-off workshop for would-be artists at the PopUp School in Abbotsford Convent. Participants will learn drawing basics, different techniques from perspective to composition, and the trick to finding inspiration in a cup of tea or cracked vase of flowers.

Don't miss out on developing your artsy skills and watching the unbelievably talented Lily in action. Book now — all materials are supplied.
