ABOUT
Meet Preeti
Hi there, I'm Preeti Katewa. For many years, art has been a central force in my life, ever since I was a child exploring colours and shapes. That passion eventually led me to pursue a degree in fashion design, which provided a strong foundation for my creative endeavours. However, after working in the fashion industry, I discovered a deeper calling in teaching art. For the past seventeen years, I've been dedicated to fostering artistic growth in young minds. My teaching career began in the USA, where I had the privilege of guiding students in their artistic exploration. Life then took me to Singapore and New Zealand, where I continued to refine my own skills as an artist, even creating works that received recognition in exhibitions.
Since 2017, I've called Australia home. Here, my focus has been on sharing my love of art with children and providing instruction in various mediums including sketching and painting. However, my artistic journey extends beyond the classroom. I actively participate in art competitions and exhibitions, and I also take on commissioned pieces to help others realize their artistic visions. Beyond art, I'm committed to giving back to the community through volunteer work focused on supporting children and their families.
At Pretty'z Art Studio, my mission is to cultivate creativity and build confidence in young artists through engaging and educational instruction. I believe fostering a child's artistic abilities can have a lasting positive impact on their lives. I take a great deal of responsibility in guiding young minds, and I'm confident that I can provide a positive and enriching experience for your child.

Blank Canvas to Brilliance
Pretty'z Art Studio, at its core, is more than just a place to learn technical skills. While mastering technical skills is important, it's not the sole focus and instead, we foster a love for the art process itself.
We strive to create a supportive and encouraging environment. This allows students to take risks, experiment freely, and embrace "happy accidents" without fear of judgement. It's a space where mistakes are seen as stepping stones.
We are a community where individuals with a shared passion for art connect, learn from each other, and draw inspiration from their peers. This sense of belonging inspires collaboration, healthy competition, and a deeper appreciation for the diversity of artistic expression.
Whether you're a complete beginner picking up a paintbrush for the first time or a seasoned artist looking to refine your skills and explore new mediums, our in-person courses and workshops cater to a variety of interests and experience levels. We invite you to contact Pretty'z Art Studio today to learn more about our programs and how we can help you or your children embark on their own art journey.
