Natasha is a colourful oil painter in based in Canberra. Light filled scenes are the inspiration for most of her pieces as she likes to recreate its atmospheric effects in her paintings of still life, flowers, and landscapes. Her art is centred around painting as a practice from life and photographs, regularly painting plein air as well as setting up studio compositions.
Her other passion is teaching where she loves to help students develop their own creative expression and overcome the fear that is often a hurdle in taking the first step into a new creative passion.
She is a regular finalist in state and national competitions with national and international collectors.
