Jane and Bill Inge - Kapiti Artisans

There are a lot of different artists and artisans who will be taking part in the Kapiti Arts Trail and two of them are husband and wife Jane and Bill Inge.

A Landscape and Exterior Space Designer by day Jane has used her design software to create some lovely artwork specific to different local regions, using the suburb names of that region.

Bill is a sculptor inspired by driftwood found locally on the beaches. Combining it with Oamaru Limestone he creates beautiful natural sculptures that will complement any garden or outdoor space. Bill is known in the Kapiti region for his delightful stone sculptures of birds. These are usually placed on a stick so that they can easily be arranged in your garden.

Jane and Bill are opening their home studio to the public during the arts trail and this can be found at 15 Sea Poppy Way. Be sure to go and check out their work.

Kapiti Arts Trail

I am delighted to be participating in this year's Kapiti Arts Trail. This is an annual event held on the Kapiti Coast that showcases the work of all the artists and artisans who live in the region. There is a huge range of artists and artisans who participate covering every imaginable type of art and craft including Fine Art, Jewellery, Sculptures, Ceramics, Photography, Lampwork Beads, Wood Carvings etc. Details of all the participating artists/artisans and the various venues can be found on the Kapiti District Council website.

 I will be exhibiting at the Southward Museum in Otaihanga. This is one of two government "hubs" that will each be featuring a variety of different artists and artisans.

The Arts Trail will be open from 10am to 4pm on both Saturday and Sunday the 15th and 16th November.

With Christmas just a few weeks away this will be the perfect opportunity to do some Christmas shopping for unique, quality gifts that you won't find in the shops.

I look forward to seeing you there!
