Evening at Flat Rock (Piha) Painting

Stefanie Kroeger is a contemporary artist based on Auckland’s West Coast, New Zealand. She is mostly self taught as an artist but has done workshop style art courses. She has been a finalist in New Zealand Art Awards including The Adam Portraiture Award and Waikato National Contemporary Art Award. Realistic paintings featuring unusual aspects or close-up sections of everyday views are the main focus in her work. Cut off subjects leave room for the viewer’s personal interpretation, finishing the story that goes on around the canvas. At the same time this allows her to reproduce surfaces in great detail: water, timber and rust are favourite shades and textures. https://stefwestcoast.wixsite.com/home
