I be go to Spark Studio for 5 years now, and I love go to Spark Studio because it help me lot like show my Art work in exhibit it is hard work and some places is very hard to find for wheelchairs can get in and places need book really quick. I see many changes at Spark Studio like they have good people run it now.

I love go to Spark Studio because it more happy and lucky place to students more happy because Spark Studio run by students and teachers all help. Spark has got more big. I love when they exhibit my Art work it help me show my Art work to people. I had exhibit by myself it is more hard for me and more hard do that. I have Exhibitions my work at the Aotea Centre and an Art Exhibition in Takapuna this one was big for me on the North Shore. I have been lucky to sell some of my paintings at these venues. I have entered my work in the Bruce Hopkins Awards received a highly commended and a 1st of $100.

I will tell you about myself now my name is Liz Collenette and I have got Cerebral Palsy and I am in a wheelchair and I can’t talk to people but I have got a little computer it go on my wheelchair and that help me to talk to people and I have got a head-pointer it is like a hat and that how I do my paintings. I be do my paintings for many many many years fact is in Arts eyes they can’t stop paintings like 11 years ago I went to England game for Cerebral Palsy people and I had make money for me and my care work can go so I had big Exhibition for that too.

I love do paintings it help me put my feelings down on paper because in Art eyes see things. Like I love dolphin they can’t talk like me but do they can understand people.
