Paula Knight grew up beside beautiful Mount Maunganui Beach in the Bay of Plenty. In London, Paula worked in design and studied life painting in oils at Wimbledon School of Art. A two year journey travelling through Africa saw her botanical painting career begin.
Paula’s background as a watercolour botanical artist shows in the intimate detail of her work. “With the botanical studies I only paint from life to gain the purist understanding of colour, texture, form and light.” Paula’s work has hung in numerous galleries around New Zealand and has attracted international attention.
Paula has exhibited in the Bay of Plenty Garden and Art Fest since its beginnings; both her work and her garden have a distinctive New Zealand native appeal. Paula has had two series of NZ Flora and Fauna paintings published by an international card company and have featured on magazine covers. Paula’s paintings and gardens have been featured on the Australian garden television series Garden Gurus.
If you are interested in drawing or painting, Artsenta is well set up with a wide range of materials and equipment. Easels, brushes, paints and various materials are available to paint with, and for drawing we have charcoal, pencils, ink and different paper stocks.
This course combines drawing and modern watercolour techniques to develop creative processes for your own art projects. You will learn foundation techniques like composition, perspective, and colour mixing to create successful watercolour paintings.
Great for a complete beginner or experienced, you’ll chose your media, subject and style to explore how you can create in your own unique way and direction. You can focus on either drawing or painting.
Life Drawing sessions are an opportunity to practise drawing a life model. These sessions are separate to Vincents’ General Studio hours. Drawing boards and easels are provided but please bring your own paper and drawing materials.
While learning and mastering technique is a priority in my classes, an additional component is understanding how to encode and decode images so that students can push past creating a picture with technical excellence and onto creating ‘art’.
