June Pearson

Christchurch

Profile

Tuition, Commissioned Work, Commercial Work


Classification

Independent
Painting and drawing have been a delight and challenge for June ever since primary school days in Christchurch, New Zealand. Always a close observer of people and their environment, she had a compelling urge to put what she saw "on paper".

Largely self-taught, June has developed her talent, in a wide range of styles, subject and media, including; watercolour, oil, charcoal, pen and ink, pencil, pastel, acrylic and mixed media. Her experience, skills and ability to work across most sectors of society, enable her to produce an extensive variety of artwork and art education programs. Public demand is high for her art skills.

During the busy years as a mother of three Sons, she accommodated her artwork around commitments to them. At this time, she exercised her talents in a great variety of voluntary work for community causes, including, original artwork and art tuition.

Currently, June tutors art to most ages, abilities and ethnic backgrounds. Book illustrations, artwork for business, public, private and education sectors also keep her busy, along with creative workshops, promotional and community art programs, for city events. Art services also include; murals, décor and interior art, commissioned works, portraits and cartoons. June enjoys working along side architects’ and interior designers, providing architectural renderings and “art to order” for clients.
