A TRULY NATURAL GIFT
With no formal training, all Patricia Emmerson-Hough has ever wanted to do is be an artist. “I’ve wanted to draw and paint, ever since I could hold a pencil.” Patricia tells us her story.
My family arrived in New Zealand when I was a child and we lived by the sea, so I was surrounded by all forms of nature; which fascinated me so much that it seemed a natural progression to recreate the detail and colours of the natural world. I don’t remember any point in my life when I stopped and said to myself that I want to be an artist, it was there in me all the time.
