An art exhibition of botanical-inspired art by Auckland artist, Lesley Alexander.
Meet the artist - Lesley will be at the gallery and would love to meet you!
'Walking around the fresh produce section of a supermarket, a walk in the reserve or an urban street hold an equal fascination for me! It is these places where I discover my next subject to paint, often finding the best natural treasures in the most unlikely of places.
All plants are beautiful, even those past their best fascinate me and I love capturing the beauty and subtlety of colour and texture with watercolour or ink.
Botanical art is a marriage of art and science and my paintings are always the result of a fascinating voyage of discovery. They can often take 100 hours from initial sketches, dissections to finished artwork as I endeavour to capture the tiny details, allowing the viewer to discover the beauty within.'
