About "Strelitzias"

Strelitzias are really 'funky' flowers - with amazing spiky shapes. They always remind me of my late aunt who had the most extraordinary strelitzias in her garden. My aunt was an amazing woman - she could be really prickly on the outside - but she had an incredible warmth, a wonderful sense of humour and was a determined survivor against all odds. I think that just about sums up strelitzias too.

About Nadine

I started doing art seriously when I was 12 years old and had the privilege of attending classes with the late Bill Ainslie.

The time I spent with Bill Ainslie and his teachers at what became the Johannesburg Art Foundation had a profound influence on my work and my outlook on art. Their teaching style promoted freedom of expression, self-exploration and innovation.

I have used several mediums; my absolute favourite is chalk pastel.

I treat each artwork like a love affair: sometimes we fight; sometimes we don't speak to one another and sometimes ... well what can I say?
