Nira was born in Melbourne and has lived in Perth for the past 38 years. It was not until about 20 years ago that she undertook any sort of formal training at all and then did not begin exhibiting until she was inspired by the work of local pastel artists and joined the Pastel Society of WA in 1999. Her first exhibited work gained an Encouragement Award and since then her paintings have continued to attract commendations and prizes.
Brief excursions into the world of Acrylics provided unexpected surprises and added to the freedom of using Pastels, to which she always returns, whilst still exploring other mediums.
“Never one to set aside time to properly photograph my work, below you will find a limited selection for your interest, painted since the year 2000 and in no particular order. No two paintings are ever the same, since the finished piece usually turns out quite different to the original intention and there is never any hesitation with venturing into colours or an idea that might add to each painting at any given time. “And that’s how I like it – never quite knowing where the journey will lead ….” Nira
