Shaun Prior

Shaun is an accomplished artist and writer with a deep passion for teaching. He completed a double major in Fine Art and Creative Writing at Curtin University in 2014 and has since built an impressive career facilitating art workshops and mentoring students across schools, galleries, and libraries. His experience includes working as an education assistant, tutor, and drawing instructor at Scotch College, where he supported young artists in developing confidence and creative skill.
As a practising artist, Shaun exhibits and sells his drawings as a meaningful side pursuit. His work has been featured in respected exhibitions such as the Midwest Art Prize, the Mandorla Art Awards, and Moores Building’s 25 Under 25. Several of his pieces are held in permanent collections at Curtin University’s John Curtin Gallery and the St. Mary’s Cathedral art collection.
Shaun specialises in graphite, coloured pencil, and fine liner — his preferred medium. His teaching philosophy blends technical precision with playful curiosity, helping students unite discipline with creativity. His goal is to guide each person toward their own artistic voice while nurturing patience, skill, and a genuine enjoyment of the drawing process.
