About Me
- Gayle Westney
- Kapiti Coast, New Zealand
- I have been painting since 2004. Largely self-taught, my painting style has continued to develop and evolve as I have come into contact with and learned from some of the well regarded artists/tutors in the Wellington region. My paintings are in acrylic paint and have a very distinctive style due to the textures and layers I like to build into them and a vibrant use of colour. These textures are created using a variety of gels, modeling pastes, gold and silver leaf, gesso and various varnish finishes. My work is becoming increasingly recognised both locally and further afield. I have exhibited widely in group shows and held my first solo exhibition in 2006. I am an exhibiting member of the NZ Academy of Fine Arts.

Hi Gayle
Richard just sent your link through to me - your work is stunning. While I was browsing through it some of the team here gathered around - I've passed the link on to them as well.
Keep being fabulous!
Wendy
