A sixth generation New Zealander, Adele Earnshaw
was born in Hastings in 1949 and lived in Warkworth before immigrating
with her family to the U.S. Her childhood in New Zealand has had
a major influence on her work and choice of subject matter today.
Adele's paintings have been exhibited at the Natural History Museum
in New York and have toured Japan and Sweden with Birds in Art exhibitions.
She is a member of the Society of Animal Artists. Adele was selected
by her native New Zealand to design the first three stamps for the
Game Bird Habitat Stamp Programme, based on the U.S. Federal Duck
Stamp Program. In December of 1999, she was invited to participate
in the first Ecoart conference and exhibition in Taiwan. Adele’s
work was exhibited at the National Museum of History in Taipei,along
with the work of 12 other artists representing nine different countries.
In recent years, Adele has also been painting landscapes plein air,
in both oil and watercolor.
Lord Nelson's Gallery used to offer prints of her
watercolors, but has recently signed on to offer her original oil
paintings.
