Helena Verhaaren

Born in Tilburg, Holland, I am a self taught artist currently working with oil pastel and gouache on paper and acrylic on canvas.  I have been painting, Provence, Tuscany and the NZ countryside, professionally for 11 years. 

 I love the grandeur, starkness and natural beauty of the South Island, and the coastal contrasts of the bush and sea of the North Island. 

 I have studied printmaking, taught from my studio and enjoyed sharing a life model with “The Group”, fellow contemporary artists.
