About Art by Anthea
An award-winning artist, Anthea Stayt has excelled in the creation of ceramic art, clay form sculptures and abstract oil painting. She has progressively developed her unique style by incorporating all three disciplines.
Throughout the 1990’s, Anthea attended ceramic classes that taught her the skills of brushwork and glazing of slip cast items. In time, she realised that she wanted to design, build and finish original forms, so she attended pottery classes and learned the basic techniques of hand-building with clay.
After a few years, Anthea had a vision of finishing her sculptures, not with glaze, but by painting onto the fired surface. So she enrolled in an art workshop tutored by international artist Vjekoslav Nemesh, where she discovered the benefits of using oil paint as a medium.
Through experimenting firstly on canvas and then on a clay surface, Anthea was finally able to develop the distinctive style that has led to her work receiving Supreme and Premier Awards, as well as her selection into national juried exhibitions.
Anthea has participated in numerous solo and shared exhibitions throughout the North and South Islands, including the NZ Art Show and NZ Sculpture Onshore. She has been a finalist several times in both the Waiclay National Ceramic and the NZ Portage Awards.
Anthea is a member of the Taranaki Arts Trail board and has opened her studio annually as part of this event. She is also a member of New Plymouth Potters.
She currently resides in New Plymouth, where she works from her home studio.
