Vivian McKenna

Artist Bio:

 

Vivian McKenna is an artist based in lower North Island and a member of the New Zealand Academy of Fine Arts. 

She has participated in a number of exhibitions over the years, including the New Zealand Academy of Fine Arts in Wellington and her work has been added to private collections around the country.

We are pleased to introduce Vivian's amazingly detailed works of art to the ArtSelect Gallery audience and invite requests for commissions for Vivian's unique depiction of New Zealand fauna and flora with its associated characteristics.

Artist Statement:

"There is something magical about putting pen to paper.  The way ideas can be shared through this medium.  Be it in words or, as in my case, images.  I love to draw and have done so for as long as I can remember.  In this series of works I attempt to connect with the viewer.  To share my love of the natural world and my desire to embrace and protect the life that makes our little piece of the world so special.  It would be a dark place without it!"
