Former art teacher returns to Canterbury after living life of true artist for decades

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

Former teacher turned "real-life artist" Geoff Heath has come full circle since starting his career in Canterbury several decades ago.

Heath began painting at a young age, encouraged by his parents, aunts and teachers, and attended art school in Christchurch where he threw himself into all aspects from painting and sculpture to design and art history.

Now he is exhibiting a large selection of his artwork at the Brick Mill Cafe in Waikuku, and is relishing seeing some of his old works of art again.

The exhibition will run daily at the Brick Mill Cafe in Waikuku from 10am to 4pm until June 2.
