About us

The Art of Making it

At The Art of Making it, we make art education accessible for students from all over the world.
Co-founded by two Australian artists who met on social media and bonded over their love for textured art.

Together we have created our own modelling paste called the Forbidden Frosting. This paste is used and loved by artists from all over the globe!

In the near future we plan to offer a wide range of artistic forms and expressions by artists from all over the world. Be sure to sign up to our school to be informed by the latest courses on offer!
