Unicorns symbolise imagination, uniqueness, limitless creativity...everyone's got a little unicorn in them!

Fifth Unicorn was featured in Issue 110 of The Local News Island and Surrounds where we chatted all things art, creativty, and finding our creative and supportive outlet to learn and grow even more.

Meet The Founder

I was lucky to grow up in a super cool and creative environment, and always encouraged to explore my artistic side. Growing up, I was the second youngest of 6 T’s (lucky number 5!) and Awesome Aunt to 20+ nieces and nephews (I’ve lost count).

Surrounded by family, I discovered my passion for singing, dancing, art and of course, unicorns.

Fast forward to 2004, I became a young parent to little T, who inherited my love of art as much as I do! And I also faced some challenges with my mental health. A beautiful friend suggested I needed to find a creative outlet that I hadn’t tried yet, and recommended fluid art.

It was a total game changer for me.

Having a healthy outlet not only helped me personally, but also opened up a whole new world for my art career. I feel so privileged to be able to share my passion, help others and constantly level up my skills.

I want everyone, no matter their age or background, to feel encouraged and motivated by our community.
