Angela Maritz Profile
Angela lives and works in the Bay of Plenty, having moved there from her native country of South Africa in 2007.
Angela believes she was born to be an artist, her earliest memories revolve around an almost complusive need to create, whether it be with paint or any other medium that allowed her child self to manifest expressions of the world around her which she found so fascinating.
That fascination has never gone away, and now many years into her professional career as a artist, Angela still experiments with her medium, finding exquisite beauty in both raw, earthy, organic colour as well as in the brillance of a bright, powerful and expressive palatte.
Her broad genre of work includes abstract floral studies, landscapes, wildlife and portraits. Many of these paintings are inspired from within, loose approximations of a vivid imagination, laid down on canvas whilst she embraces her senses with music in a delicate balance between person, motion and environment.
