Artspace Gallery is proud to welcome Petone watercolour artist, Sue Dey, for her first solo exhibition in Wellington.

Sue completed up to Level 5 Diploma of Art and Creativity in 2013 and soon after, she gave up her full time job to focus full time on painting with her favourite medium, watercolours. Since then Sue has developed her own amazing watercolour style using deep and rich colours and each painting she completes oozes the joy of watercolours clearly done by an artist now at one with this challenging but happy medium.

In 2024 Sue completed a residency at The Church, Rawene, where she painted landscapes and the tidal waters of the Hokianga. At the end of her residency she had an exhibition at the local community exhibition hall which resulted in a near sell out exhibition.

This exhibition at Artspace Gallery is a collection of paintings capturing her own impressions of Wellington inspired by the work of Peter McIntyre, D.R. Neilson, and John Castle. Sue says I am fascinated by the shapes of nature and have attempted to capture these and the light as it plays on the contours of the land and water.

As well as Sue Deys exhibition. Artspace Gallery has four other gallery spaces to explore and features art by over two hundred local and NZ artists in all genres. The gallery has become a popular go to place for prints and art of Wellington and also provides an extensive range of unique NZ made gifts. Also popular are the fun art classes, Wine & Watercolour evenings for adults and school holiday art classes for youth.

Gallery Open 10.30 - 4pm Tuesday to Sunday FREE ENTRY FREE & Easy parking
