Denise Painter

Denise's creative journey commenced in 1993 when she decided that she would be a ‘stay at home mum’. She began to explore creative possibilities and enrolled in various courses such as Colour and Design and Graphic Design, and more recently Visual Arts at TAFE.

Over the last 25 years, Denise has developed a unique style and now loves to create works using Collage and Mixed Media techniques. Her works are handcrafted or created using digital techniques. Denise loves to explore the possibilities of the abstract and the surreal using colour as an integral part of the piece. Three years ago, Denise moved from Sydney to Toronto Lake Macquarie where she has her Studio – YouCreate Studio & Gallery where she continues to create and hold workshops and classes.
