Original Painting by Serena Buonaguidi-Haynes
Oil paint and water colour pencils on canvas
Dimensions: 510×610mm
Serena Buonaguidi-Haynes - Whakatū Nelson
Serena’s paintings evoke a sense of quiet wonder — works that feel both mythical and dreamlike. Birds, deer, and swimmers often appear in her compositions, inspired by her move from the intensity of city life to the gentle rhythm of nature and ocean living in Nelson.
Her process is as intuitive as it is distinctive. Serena paints with her canvases laid flat, building bold, expressive backgrounds with sweeping brushstrokes. Figures emerge through finger painting, while wire scratching and pencil markings add delicate layers of texture and detail.
Originally from the UK, with Danish and Italian heritage, Serena has cultivated a devoted following both in New Zealand and internationally.
