Hello!
My name is Tyler and I am traveling all over the place! I grew up in New Zealand but am currently trying to broaden my perspective by staying away from home. I have just been through Nepal, and will most likely be hanging about Europe over 2019 but have a feeling I'll gravitate towards Africa.
I paint large scale watercolour paintings for a living (the pictures usually based on my travels) and exhibit and sell work through a gallery in New Zealand and in London.
I also love to read and to run!
I am curious and open minded and excited to meet and learn from new people! I would be happy to meet for coffee, to go for a run and to do art with you :)
