An Easy Way to Spend
Meaningful Time Together
Whether they live next door, across town or interstate, a Guided Painting Kit
gives you something enjoyable to do together, and something new to talk about.
Wherever They Live
For Mum or Dad, a grandparent, an aunt or an uncle,
you can send them a thoughtful gift from wherever you are.
Order an Artful Connections kit online and we’ll deliver it to their door anywhere in Australia.
Living close by
Sit down at the kitchen table for an afternoon of painting. The guided templates and Deb's videos mean nobody has to lead.
Living further away
Send a box to their door and paint together over a video call, or let them enjoy it at their own pace and share the results next time you talk.
Under one roof
An enjoyable creative activity for different generations to share, from grandparents to grandchildren.
Why It Works
Each kit is created by Deb Shapiro, a professional artist and qualified art therapist,
drawing on her experience painting with older adults and their families.
Conversation comes naturally
Working side by side gives everyone a shared focus. The conversation cards in each box offer gentle prompts when you want them.
No art skills needed
Guided templates and step-by-step videos give you a clear place to begin, so the afternoon is about time together, not getting it right.
A gift they'll use
More than another thing for the shelf: three guided painting projects to create and enjoy together.
