From the artist
Sara Hughes is an established New Zealand artist well known for her dynamic paintings and installations.
“This work responds to a basic human need to be creative, and invites participants of all ages to take part. My hope is that you will enjoy this mini set of All My Favourite Shapes, have fun making your own creations and compositions - the possibilities are endless”.
“I first created a mini set of All My Favourite Shapes for my sons sixth seventh birthday from the offcuts, left over from hand cutting the magnetic shapes. During lockdown I thought a lot about the role of art and I developed this set, my intention to bring creativity into the home for all ages”
