Body Art in Waipu
Nadine Clement is the Waipu based artist that brought you the tartan sheep in the Waipu Christmas Parade.
Nadine organised a Face Painting and Body Art workshop in Waipu in May which was very high on inspiration, experimentation and creativity, so she is planning another workshop!
She is also anticipating that after the body art category at ‘Art n Tartan’, that there may be an increase in interest and in attendance to learn more about this fascinating art this time round.
