"If I create from the heart, nearly everything works, if from the head, almost nothing.” (Marc Chagall).

Perfection is often in itself imprisonment, and instead of pursuing perfection pursue excellence. Excellence means doing your best, you don't have to be perfect just be consistent and maybe some imperfections show authenticity.

Welcome to the Eales Notley art Studio website, I hope you enjoy viewing the fantastic art.

Lynette Eales Notley and Desiree Notley are both members of the North Coast Artists.

Lynette is a self taught artist who sketched in pencil. She attended some art lessons with Miss Ritter at her art studio in Durban, when she was younger, to learn how to add colour to her art. She gained her interest in art from her father, who was a very good artist. Lynette always gives praise to the Lord for all of her achiements.

It looks like art runs in the family and Desiree chose art as a subject when she attended Danville Girls High School. On completing her studies at Danville Girls High School, she continued with her love for art and attained an art diploma at CFAD Durban.
