Mike, the closest metro is Brisbane which is about 2 and a half hours away. Syndey is around 12 hours away.

The unfortunate problem I have is that there only seems to be me who is interested in portraiture in this whole region as far as I can ascertain. Another artist (male) has done portraiture but more impressionist style with about 70% accuracy. I would like to be trained in realism and 100% accuracy but classical teachings.

The other artists that came to the first workshop are landscape/abstract painters or beginners and many don't seem to take their draughtsmanship skills seriously.

That is why I feel a bit isolated at times.

The other option is to find out if I could somehow find a good portrait teacher from say Sydney but tag onto another citys workshop that they happen to be at and the traveling costs would be cheaper. I am not sure what to do? I have about $500 to play with. I want to stretch it as far as it will go.
