DATES RELEASED SOON

A rather bigger painting project…

Glenda is a large cast garden goose just waiting to be transformed by you. Paint her traditional, pastel, colourful, floral, spotty, stripy or completely bonkers — the design is entirely yours.

When you’ve finished, you’ll have a completely unique statement piece for your home, doorstep or garden.

One giant goose. Your design.
Absolutely no sensible reason not to. 🪿

What on earth is a Porch Goose?

If you’ve never heard of a porch goose, you’re probably not alone!

Large decorative goose statues are particularly well known in America, where they’re displayed on porches, doorsteps and in gardens. Some owners even dress their geese for different seasons, holidays and occasions.

We loved the idea.

So naturally, Arty Boat decided you should be able to paint one.

And that’s how Glenda arrived.

Looking for pottery painting in Exmouth?

You may have found Arty Boat while searching for pottery painting in Exmouth — and yes, we offer pottery painting too.

But Glenda is for those moments when painting a normal-sized piece suddenly doesn’t seem quite ambitious enough.

Think of the same relaxed creative freedom you love about pottery painting: choose your colours, take your time and create something completely individual.

Except Glenda isn’t pottery. She’s a substantial cast garden ornament.

Basically: painting, but monster size. 😂

Want the traditional-sized version too? Discover pottery painting at Arty Boat .

Glenda Goose FAQs

How big is Glenda Goose? We’re currently finalising Glenda’s production, including her finished dimensions and weight. Full details will be added before bookings open.
Is Glenda made from pottery? No. Although the experience will appeal to anyone who enjoys pottery painting, Glenda is a large cast garden ornament rather than a ceramic pottery piece.
Can Glenda live outside? We’re finalising the painting and finishing process so we can give you accurate outdoor-care information before the first sessions take place.
Do I need to be good at painting? Absolutely not. There is no right way to paint a goose. Make her as traditional, colourful or gloriously ridiculous as you like.
When can I paint Glenda? Dates will be released soon. Once confirmed, upcoming sessions will also appear in our What’s On listings.
