NZ Art Show; it was a whirlwind. 👌💕🙏

It’s the final day of the NZ Art Show today.

It’s been a wonderful few days filled with lovely conversations, familiar faces, new connections, and the joy of seeing so many paintings find their new homes.

I’ve also loved catching up with fellow artists and being part of such a vibrant creative community.

Feeling very grateful this afternoon.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello so far.

“Equinox” is available at the NZ Art Show this weekend.

A painting from a while back.

I think we underestimate how much our surroundings affect us. We respond to things like colour, light, texture and form constantly, although often without even realising it.

That’s part of what I’m interested in with my work.

I aim to create paintings that bring a sense of ease into a space, while still feeling alive.
