Kia ora, I am Jax
I am an artist, educator, and advocate for creative expression based in Aotearoa New Zealand. My mission is to demystify visual art, bring creativity to the wider community, and offer a space where people can learn about, connect with and express their inner worlds through brush, colour, and form.
Art as a bridge to the inner self
My creative practice is founded on the belief that art is a bizzare practice, that can found everywhere, anywhere at any time. All you have to do is look, think and create. The practice is found by trying, refining and communicating. Whether working with bold acrylics, delicate washes, or layered textures, I create work that invites contemplation, reflection, and quiet recognition. To me, art is not an exclusive luxury, it is an essential form of human language that helps us navigate emotion, identity, and connection.
Bringing creativity to everyone
Alongside my studio work, teaching is at the heart of what I do. I believe everyone deserves to feel at peace with different art forms and comfortable in their own creative voice. Through open, encouraging guidance, I help people of all backgrounds move past self doubt, discover the joy of making marks, and develop an authentic relationship within art and themselves.
A home base for creative dialogue
Art by Jax serves as my studio anchor and a welcoming platform for community outreach. It is a space where I share original work and reflect on the creative process. I wish to connect with collectors and learners alike. Whether you are looking to commission a unique piece or delve into mindful art exploration, you are warmly invited to join the journey.
Alongside my art, I study Mathematics. It is a pursuit of curiosity and leisure, to strengthen the mind, refine creative proccesses and improve abstract thinking. Contrary to common belief, Art and Math have always gone hand in hand.
