Splatter away stress Wonderful colours surround you in splatters and bursts as stress fades away and your inner child comes out to play! The Splatter Shed is a new creative sanctuary where paint and fun fly – right here in Tauranga. Photographer Vanessa Laval-Glad is the colour-loving mastermind behind the shed and was proud to open its doors to the community
last weekend. “I couldn’t find anything like it anywhere in New Zealand and it was kind of a small idea that evolved into something a bit bigger,” says Vanessa. “It’s a good opportunity for families to do something fun together!” No artistic experience is required in the Splatter Shed, and is purely a space to say goodbye to stress and immerse
yourself into a world of vibrancy. “Everyone is under stress in the current economy and it’s just having that space to let loose and not having to worry about cleaning up afterwards and just having fun.” Learn more about the Splatter Shed on page 5. Photo: John Borren.
