Rina Botha

Rina Botha is a contemporary painter whose work celebrates abundance, femininity, and the emotional resonance of nature. She blends vibrant colour, expressive form, and subtle surrealism to create paintings that feel both intimate and alive. There’s a slightly dreamlike quality to her paintings, where everyday natural elements feel more alive and full of energy.

Alongside her still life paintings, Rina also creates New Zealand landscapes that reflect a deep connection to the land. These works capture the atmosphere, colour, and changing moods of the environment, offering a personal and expressive response to Aotearoa’s natural beauty.

Originally from South Africa and now based in New Zealand, Rina brings together influences from both places. Her earthy yet bold palette and layered compositions create paintings that feel warm, immersive, and full of life.
