Today on the podcast I speak with Jasmine Kroeze - an artist based in Pāpāmoa Beach who wears many hats: mural artist, illustrator and surface designer, to name just a few!

With a background in fashion and textiles, Jaz has built a multifaceted creative practice spanning murals, paintings, brand partnerships, art licensing, surface patterns and illustration – all from her oceanside home studio. Known for her bold use of colour and playful compositions, her work sparks conversation, creates connection and injects joy into everyday spaces.

In this episode we talk about her journey from fashion into art, how textiles shaped her creative style, building a brand through social media, the three values she measures every project by and so much more…

I’ve followed Jaz’s work and progress for years, and one of the things that stands out is her incredible output (alongside her work, she is a content queen!). She exudes joy and passion for what she does, and her willingness to try new things, put herself out there, and share her process so openly is inspiring.

For any working artist, aspiring creative, or anyone dreaming of turning their passion into a full-time career, Jaz is proof that it’s possible – and she does it with honesty, energy and a whole lot of heart.

I know you’ll love this kōrero with Jaz as much as I did.
