For the love of Art
Santie Cronje is an artist and gallery owner based in the beautiful South Waikato region. She has been exhibiting through galleries and participated in both group and solo exhibitions since 2008. In 2018, Santie and her partner Shane Berger established Deciduus Gallery. A charming space located in Taupo, the gallery displays a wide range of Santie’s art, indoor plants and a curated collection by a small group of talented New Zealand artists. The gallery reflects her love for cultivating art and supporting independent creatives.
New Work
Inspiration
Photography plays a big part in my work. Even though I don't paint to copy a scene or a still life, photos are great for composition and colours. And it inspires me to notice the world around me. From big skies to intimate stills.
