wanaka arts society easter exhibition

21 March 2015

Entries are now in for the upcoming Wanaka Arts Society exhibition that will be running the whole Easter weekend.

I will have 4 paintings in the group exhibition. At the moment my studio has turned into a bit of production line kind of thing, as I'm priming and painting cradled hardboard to use as a type of framing to mount my mixed media pieces done on recycled placemats.

It's the less glamorous side of an artist's life, but it is very exciting to see the works all properly framed and ready to hang.

Looking forward to the exhibition.

16 June 2026

There's something irresistibly paintable about a weathered fence post half-swallowed by summer wildflowers. It's the contrast that does it — rough, sun-bleached wood against the soft, fleeting delic...
