Artists Need Money Too

And because of that reason, I’m sellng my soul to the devil. Yikes that sounds creepy! What I mean is I have some extremely heavily discounted paintings for sale on Trade Me right now. Starting from $1!!! The photos don’t do them any justice, I hear this time and time again. Every painting is of [...]

Good News All Around

A close-up of an old paintng of mine. Celtic Dreams. Yesterday my children and I were all sick and at home. Its just a sick week for us all. We’ve had every bug under the sun in the past 2 weeks. Hopefully thats our lot though. It hasn’t been anywhere near as bad as it [...]

Still Working On It

I’m still working on my painting for the enquiry I had. I managed to run out of gold paint and had to wait till today for the one store in town, that sells this specific paint,to be open. This weekend has been hectic, not at all relaxed like I thought it would be. On top [...]

Exhibition Photos!

I FINALLY managed to get to the gallery to take some photos. When I walked in there were some people looking around and one introduced himself as Wayne Hill. I recognised the name as another NZ artist and we had a really nice chat. Very cool guy. So…here are the photos! I’ve just realised I [...]

Progress Report

Today was the day I met up with Taj. I walked in to the gallery about 10 seconds before her. She’s so nice! I’m really excited about the upcoming exhibition. It’s meant to be ‘work’ but meeting with Lisa and Taj was a great stress reliever. It also made me look at my invitation to [...]

Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself...

My name is Chavah. They say for a relationship to work you need a dreamer and a realist. I am the dreamer. My dreams are what I MAKE my reality. I am passionately curious, sometimes awkward and I have a somewhat ridiculous but infectious laugh. I live in the deep south of New Zealand, married to my realist husband. I need him, he keeps it real... like realists do. I spend my days raising four out-going children, it's as exhausting as one would imagine. Currently I live and breathe transforming my body into a powerful weapon. It's my new found love, so if you need me - find me at the gym. Actually don't, I dislike talking while I'm training. I've been described as eccentric, I quite like that. The definition of eccentric is 'deviating from the recognized or customary character, practice'; that sounds about right. I'm the crazy creative type, well actually I'm not that crazy. I know exactly what's up but I am creative. I'm an Artist that's exhibited extensively throughout NZ and sold pieces internationally but right now I'm busy raising children so instead my creative tendencies have been refocused on up-cycling furniture, redecorating my home, event planning and writing.

Stick around to read all about it.
