Discover the artistry, science, and respect that define ethical taxidermy with Brisbane-based artist Lauren Hundloe. At Eternal Creatures, each workshop invites students to explore the connection between craftsmanship and compassion — preserving animals not as trophies, but as tributes to life and learning.

You’ll gain hands-on experience in small mammal and bird preservation, guided by traditional methods adapted for modern, ethical practice. These immersive classes are designed to make taxidermy accessible and transparent, blending anatomy, technique, and creativity in a calm, supportive studio environment.

Whether you’re an artist seeking new materials, a naturalist with a love for wildlife, or simply curious about the process, these workshops offer a space to learn, question, and create.

Each taxidermy workshop in Brisbane is a fully guided, hands-on experience led by professional taxidermist Lauren Hundloe. You’ll work step-by-step through the process of preparing, preserving, and mounting your own small animal specimen — typically a rabbit, rat, or bird — using safe, ethical, and museum-grade techniques.

Workshops are limited in size to ensure every participant receives personalised instruction and one-on-one guidance. Lauren explains each method in detail, from skin preparation and form building to posing and finishing — ensuring every student leaves with a lifelike mount they can take home and proudly display.

All tools, materials, and safety equipment are provided. You’ll also gain insight into the history, artistry, and ethics of taxidermy — developing not just technical skills, but a deeper appreciation for the natural world.

These sessions are suitable for complete beginners — no prior experience is required — and each class is conducted in a respectful, calm, and creative studio environment.
