Wendy Walls

Mixed media

LOCATION:

'My genre is mixed media painting. I use gels, pastes, fluid acrylics and collage to paint abstract and realistic concepts. I derive inspiration from all things around me.'

I am a Golden Certified Instructor for Golden Artist Colors of New York and I teach 'Give it a Go Mixed Media' art workshops for all skill levels. My art gives me intrinsic pleasure but equally rewarding is the satisfaction from encouraging others to discover this amazing journey for themselves. In my workshops, beginner painters conquer their fear of failure and unleash their creativity alongside experienced watercolourists and oil painters seeking new ideas and inspiration.

A few years ago I launched Chasing Mercury, a week-long series of fun, invigorating art workshops led by accomplished artist tutors in and around Whitianga. Chasing Mercury returns 8th -12th March 2021 to coincide with Mercury Bay Art Escape open studio tour weekends. Choose from an exciting line-up of workshops: drawing, flax weaving, mixed media, mosaics, paper art, photography, pottery and watercolour. Book online at www.chasingmercury.co.nz
