GIFT VOUCHERS

Umm, What shall I get?

​

There is always someone that is tricky to buy for, isn't there?

How about a voucher so they can treat themselves - either from my shop, website, workshop or classes.

​

Message me so I can personalise the voucher for you, and either post to you or send a digital voucher for you to print out yourself.

Miranda Murmuration Series

My series of  four 'Miranda Murmuration' watercolours are now available here as A4 artist reproduction Giclee prints. These are all A4 size and would look great as a set together on a wall - perfect for the bach!

​

They are also available as A6 blank cards with envelopes and will be on my Felt shop shortly, or get in touch if you want some now!

Botanical Drawing and Painting 
Capturing Nature in Art

 

Come along and spend the day with me at Selwyn College in Auckland, where we'll dive into the world of botanical drawing and painting. Whether you're a complete beginner, a gardening enthusiast, or an artist looking for a fresh creative outlet, this workshop is for you!

​

The day will cover essential topics, including an introduction to botany, an overview of contemporary botanical art, and techniques for creating tonal drawings with ink and graphite. After lunch, we’ll move on to watercolour, learning how to transfer your drawing to watercolour paper and apply various techniques to start your painting.

 

By the end of the session, you’ll have the knowledge to continue developing your painting at home.
