"Tess, I love it!...Your web of subjects and choices of composition and color hit the core of the music better than
anything I'd Imagined"
"Thank you so much for the lovely piece beyond expectations.
I can't stop smilin" Tim Bisha, Collector, CAN
Tess moved to the
UK
from New Zealand
in 2008
to pursue her art career.
Her weird and wonderful work comes from an ever-changing,
dream-like blend of beauty, fantasy, humour and the animal kingdom!
Influenced by a fusion of favourite artist MC Escher, Japanese art, street graffiti and the surrealist movement,
Tess’ art captures and enchants, whisking the viewer away to the heady realms of magic, lust and curiosity. Self-taught,
Tess' new works incorporate more graphic design techniques than her earlier projects, using a myriad of skills to vivid effect.
Airbrushing, charcoal, mark making, stenciling, pastel, carving and collage are all given a whirl!
Tess is inspired by her travels, and her art reflects the new people, places, activities encountered in her daily life.
