Congratulations to Zoe Cromwell!

Zoe's  award entry  work ‘What We Carry’  was  as one of the two only HIGHLY COMMENDED Regional Artists for the STUFF Gold Award at the Wellington Art Show! 

Zoe is a Wellington painter. Born and raised in Dunedin, she spent time teaching, travelling, having a family, and working as a journalist -- among other things -- always drawn to make art as time permitted. She studied batik as a painting technique in Indonesia then finally got to go to art school as a mature student.

In 2002 Zoe graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Art with Distinction from Quay School of the Arts in Whanganui.

Zoe has lived and worked as an artist in Solomon Islands, Whanganui, East Africa and most recently the Middle East, exhibiting in each location; her work has been placed throughout New Zealand and also features in collections in Germany, UK, USA and Canada.

Zoe has completed art residencies in Masterton and New Delhi.  At the moment she is working on a series of paintings of figures.
