Lesly Finn Profile

I am English, a mother of four children and a registered nurse. In 1999 I emigrated to New Zealand with my husband, since when I have been able to pursue a long held dream of expressing myself with paint. I work mainly with pastel or in acrylic on canvas, and I sometimes incorporate collage.

Although I paint many subjects, one of my main interests has always been in depicting people and a shared experience. My vision is for my paintings to intrigue, to tell a story or to evoke an emotional response in the viewer. Some of my recent work explores a more abstract approach in expressing those ideas.
