Hi there, my name is Jacki Barklie, I am a full-time artist. I have been painting and exhibiting for over 20 years. After 37 years of hairdressing in my own hairdressing salons, I decided it was time to fill my need to explore art further.
I looked at all the art courses that were available to me. I decided to get a degree in Creative Industries at Toi Ohomai Institute Of Technology. The leadership of this 3-year degree was amazing. The tutors were experts in their own fields as well as practicing their crafts. One of the best things I did! I was a mature student and was astounded that at my age there was still room to grow, not only in the creative industry but in personal growth as well.
Two and a half years down the track, my vision has come to fruition.
