SUMMARY:Art Exhibition - The Kube: Nina Kroeker
DESCRIPTION:to Aug 30. ‘Community Forest’ This collection began with many walks through my local community forest. I started being drawn to study the individual trees of the forest more closely. As I started painting them\, I began to notice that each tree needed a slightly different handling; from expressive and thick brushstrokes. I use bright colours to portray the way that I feel in nature; vibrant and alive.
