Annie Hayward’s art transports the viewer into a world of chimerical fantasy. Fine detail, clean colours and soulful whimsy, are her trademarks, trademarks not only of an accomplished artist, but a person whose love and humanity is transposed into her art. She lives, breathes and loves art, her inspiration and creativity originating from a love of life, human beings, nature, the sea, the weather and animals.
“Inspiration for my paintings starts as little seeds of thought, derived form my own experiences and from observations of life, things my friends say or do and animals I love. The little 'seeds' then begin to reveal themselves to me, like minute stories or scenes in a play.”
Annie Hayward
Annie Hayward’s natural talent for painting was encouraged by her father, a French artist and her mother, also artistically inclined. Her first exhibition with Rona Gallery in 2006 sold out, such was the interest and enthusiasm her art generated.
Annie’s modern and figurative art work is included in many New Zealand and international collections and is available as original paintings, prints, and greeting and gift cards.
“I invite you, to enter through the portal of my imagination and into my world of the figurative landscape where I endeavour to conjure up artworks that reflect magic, romance and a good dose of humour - all the positive emotions we need in life… so let the show begin and never end!”
Annie Hayward
