Shawna Chow Inanga Originals

Inanga are the most common native fish species caught as whitebait. Unfortunately, as a result, these fish are at risk and their population is declining. Shawna's triptych set of mini Inanga paintings celebrates the little things in life. 

These beautiful paintings can be purchased individually or as a triptych set for only $325 (discounted at checkout).

Shawna's creative spirit is irrepressible and is reflected in her bright and exuberant paintings. She has always had a playful view of our world and this is reflected in her confident use of colour and bold brush strokes, evoking movement. She likes to exaggerate this movement and the character of each form, to create a feeling of carefree carelessness. Details come across within a layered structure of values and hues of irrepressible colours.

“People see humour in my paintings, which I love.” Shawna’s style uses simple primitive shapes and forms which morph into images that are full of humor and delight. Her subjects leap off the canvas with attitude and a joy of life. Her approach towards her work is almost child-like in its optimism and view of nature and human relationships. She has observed that her paintings make people feel happy, which in turn makes her happy.
