Lost & Found - Unearthing your visual voice

winter school 2023

Enrol Now
Jennifer (GAYE) Nieuwenhof lives on the Bellarine Peninsular. The natural environment has always nurtured her creativity and the colours and forms of nature influence her work.  

​Nature has many layers and illustrates her desire to emulate those layers in her work. Opacity/translucency, Texture/Smooth, Weathered/Emerging, these concepts interest her, allowing her to express her own visual voice. 

Lost & Found - Unearthing Your Visual VOice

Although the work is abstract in nature, nature can be seen in it everywhere.  It is a little like mining an image, creating a pile of refuse, then re-arranging it. Believing you use whatever is available to birth the image, makes for a more enquiring mind. Recycled and bits and pieces are consistently used in works, therefore she is forever on the lookout for interesting textures.

After years teaching it is her joy to inform that she has seen many women emerging as their creative self after working and child rearing. This occurs in all levels of artistic endeavour and can quickly become fully blown.  It is a bit like being hit by lightning, blasting away barriers to creativity.

All skill levels are catered for in a nurturing, happy, light manner.  It is the interaction with fellow students which brings out those hidden attributes. Everyone deserves the chance to mine for these jewels.
