About Denise & contact info

 


I am a freelance illustrator working in Wellington, New Zealand. I am a freelance designer, illustrator and graphic artist working in Wellington, New Zealand. In 1989, I graduated with a Diploma in Visual Communication Design from a three-year full time course at Wellington Polytechnic Design School. The final year was spent specialising in illustration.

Favourite projects include the Dominion Newspaper Indulgence Page food illustrations, The Lighthouse People and The Experiment for Learning Media, Daisy Doll for Scholastic as well as Wood for the Winter and The Old Cattle Dog for Reed Publishing.

In the past five years I have undertaken more diverse design projects which include postage stamps and cards, brochures and posters. I have also tutored classes in illustration at Inverlochy Art School.

Over this period I have spent more time developing my own artwork, and have exhibited with the Academy of Fine Arts, Watercolour New Zealand, Inverlochy Art School and Gilberd Marriott Gallery. I am working towards making fine arts my primary occupation.
