About the Artist

Welcome to the world of J.D Stevenson. Discover the inspiration, passion, and story behind the art.

The power of art

I am a Wairarapa-based artist with a background in design. I love the power of art, and how a painting can alter the way we see our surroundings. Everyday things can gain immense beauty when experienced through someone else’s eyes. Art offers us a chance to see our planet differently, as the artist and the viewer.

Aotearoa and the Pacific

The landscapes, flora, and fauna of Aotearoa New Zealand, and the Pacific provide an endless inspiration. Each drawing or painting reflects on our deep connection to the natural world.

Colourful and Expressive

J.D Stevenson's art style can be described as colourful and expressive, with a distinct use of line. Each painting is a unique exploration of colour and form.
