About
Simone is a watercolour and coloured pencil artist born in Aotearoa, New Zealand. Raised in the 1980s and coming of age alongside the rise of the internet, she works from a generational threshold between traditional and digital tools.
Her practice moves between birds, landscapes, and abstraction, exploring memory, place, and reflections of human experience. Her work carries a lightness — moments of warmth, curiosity, and play.
Working in delicate, labour-intensive media, she creates pieces that invite slowness and attention. With a background in design, her compositions balance structure and openness, leaving space for ongoing exploration.
