Collette Fergus is a contemporary New Zealand artist whose work explores identity, memory, and connection. Her original art captures the essence of Aotearoa, its natural beauty, cultural richness, and the many stories woven through our everyday lives.
Working with quality acrylics, watercolours, oils, and mixed media, Collette combines bold brushstrokes, vivid colour, and layered textures to create pieces that feel both expressive and deeply personal.
Among her most recognisable works is the beloved Boozehag (Chardonnay Minx) series, playful, character-driven portraits that explore personality and self-expression with humour and heart. Many of these pieces are commissioned, each one capturing the unique quirks and emotions of the people they represent.
Nature and abstraction also feature strongly in Collette’s portfolio. Her New Zealand abstract paintings reinterpret the landscape and the diversity of Kiwi life through colour, movement, and imaginative form.
Collette’s art invites viewers into a world of inspiration, storytelling, and connection. If you’re looking to buy New Zealand art that’s bold, expressive, and unmistakably original, you’re in the right place. Get in touch today!
