“VAL CARTER

Val developed an interest in drawing and painting at an early age and first studied art under the late Owen Lee and then later attended workshops tutored by other artists. Val paints mainly in oils and acrylics and favours flowers and NZ land and seascapes. For a number of years, she has run a local art group which regularly exhibit paintings throughout the year in local Shopping Centre’s and Halls. Many of her paintings have been sold to local and overseas buyers that are out here on holiday.”
