Walls That Talk Artists

Born and raised in the foothills of a bushland reserve in Newcastle, Renae has strong ties to the Hunter Valley Region.

With  a background in graphic design, Renae's approach to illustration is often very strong, focusing particularly on line, contrast and composition. Her work as an illustrator often engages with local, familiar subjects, talking to her sense of identity, home and connection with the natural world.

Having lived most of her life on the Central Coast of New South Wales, it is natural that Tanya often finds here the inspiration for her work as natural history illustrator.

Tanya has a degree in Natural History Illustration with Honours from the University of Newcastle where she graduated with both the Faculty and University Medal.

Tanya's illustrations have been included in several significant publications including 'Celebrating 200 Years of the Royal Botanic Gardens Sydney' and 'Flora of Australia- A Botanical Art Worldwide Exhibition'.

Her work is held in several private collections including the University of Newcastle and the Royal Botanical Gardens in Sydney.
