Meg Cloete- Skoodles illustration

I’m a teacher and artist based in Riversdale who loves creating large-scale, interactive murals that invite people to get involved. My work is all about participation, turning a blank space into something colourful and collaborative where everyone, no matter their age or artistic ability, can leave their mark.

For this year’s Southland Arts Trail, I’m transforming a small shop into a giant colouring-in zone. The walls will be covered in my hand-drawn doodles, created with black Posca markers, ready for visitors to help bring them to life using a range of colours and materials. It’s a fun, hands-on experience where creativity is shared, conversations happen, and together we’ll create one giant artwork over the course of the weekend.
