She showed early promise with drawing and painting, finally making a career of teaching art, where she was known for her ability to promote the creative capabilities of her students, encouraging them in developing their own personal style. She taught for thirty years at primary, secondary, and tertiary level in New Zealand, Canada, and finally with the New Zealand Volunteer Service Abroad in landlocked Zimbabwe. She and her husband, Bruce, were married in 1966, raising their five children in Wellington and later in Levin. Her colourful works in oils, acrylics, and stained glass are in many homes within NZ and overseas. AudreyÊs account of her Zimbabwean experience has been written during her recent recuperation from cancer. Some of the illustrations are live sketches drawn at the time, others are drawn from photographs or memory, mostly done in graphite pencil and ink pens, with an occasional ink wash.lihat lebih sedikit
