Original Art, Inspired by Nature & Emotion
Welcome to My Wonderland. In my world, colour, light, shadows, and textures speak their own language — and I simply follow. I paint for myself, moved by the beauty around me and the stillness within. Each piece is a quiet reflection, created in the corners of New Zealand, which I call home. It’s a joy to share this wonderland with you — may you feel something when you wander through it.

How I Can Help

Hello Art Lovers,
Thank you for visiting my art world.
Each piece you see here is a reflection of emotion, memory, and imagination, rooted deeply in nature and inspired by the landscapes of New Zealand. Through photography and painting, I’ve captured moments in my own unique way. I’m inspired by colour, texture, rhythm, and the way the air makes me feel. It is a reflection of my moods — from peaceful landscapes to bold expressions.
My intention is to bring beauty, calm, and meaning into your space.
Whether you’re here to shop, seek inspiration, or simply explore, I’m truly grateful you stopped by.
Let the colours speak to you — and please reach out if a piece connects with your heart.

What Our Clients Say
Anju is an experienced and exceptional painter which shows in her artwork that is displayed around the studio. She is keen to teach us varying techniques when asked, or at the same time is happy to let us be creative on our own if called for.
I feel the course fees are very generous and always look forward to participating in any workshops or classes she advertises.
Sally Nearby
The heart painting i purchased from Anju turely inviting. When i saw it for the first time i had these butterfly feelings. Still, to date, it is hanging in my little clinic bringing a positive vibe. I know I made the best purchase.
All the best.
Michelle Healing
I enjoy the relaxed class atmosphere and gentle chatter that goes around the class during our 2 hour Tuesday night sessions. There is no pressure to do better or be better than the next student and Anju always makes me feel like my work is “special and important” which I appreciate.
Sharlene Coleman
Your paintings remind me it’s just creativity from an artistic heart. Your watercolour flows very well. The control on the brush is very good. Most of your paintings have very good depth. You make your paintings grow.
Wayne H
I really enjoyed the small class size, the friendly social atmosphere and the freedom to work at your own pace. It’s a very productive course and I had a lovely painting done in my very first class! I would highly recommend this course to those just starting out or getting back into painting.
Peter K
I am very proud of what I have achieved, with my paintings, I am happy to display them on my walls, showcasing the skills Anju taught me.. I also feel that as I had never thought myself to be creative, or able to draw, I was able to produce something that I was more than happy to show my family, and friends and hang on my walls at home. And have someone enjoy me gifting them something they chose. You provided me with the confidence to try and encourage my own style ( even if that was a bit strange). I still find it encouraging that I can dabble with what I do.. even if it’s not “real art”.
Thanks, Anju
