Paula Petherick

Paula is a fine art photographer who uses multiple layers of texture and still life composition to create works with a painterly quality. By photographing and layering the different elements of the image individually, the finished work combines varying viewpoints and lighting elements.

Having travelled widely, Paula developed her style during her years overseas. She and is greatly inspired by the works of the Dutch Masters and the early European Masters, with their use of light and drama.

Paula regularly exhibits in a range of Artshows across New Zealand. She was named as one of the top ten emergent artists of the year by the New
Zealand Artshow 2019.

The idea of breaking free from years of traditional photography was the key to creativity.
