Art and Soul

Art and Soul offers individual and group classes in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. My passion is to share my love for creativity, to inspire people to see things from a different perspective, and to connect with others.

My Story

From an early age creating art has been a wonderful outlet, a way of escaping reality and getting lost in time.

Along my journey I’ve had fantastic teachers who given me profound insights; they have taught me to look at life from a different perspective, and to see how everything is connected.

I have been very fortunate to be able to have a varied career doing what I love, including;

• Graphic artist in advertising agencies and newspapers

• Dabbled in screen printing, sign writing and ticket writing

• Owned and designed “Up the Garden Path Café and Gallery” in Motueka

• Studio in Nelson – Sold commissioned artwork both nationally and internationally, had exhibitions and tutored students
