Portfolio

My paintings are influenced by the wonderful NZ scenery and my passion for fine detail. From the serenity and beauty of the tourquise waters of the ocean surrounding NZ, with its many wharfs and fishing boats to the rustic and weathered old buildings that still (though in their dwindling numbers), remain on our landscape.  I love to capture what makes them so special - their weathered timber, chipping paint, rustic barns and buildings and rusty padlocks. They evoke a memory of a time long past but even in their declining state they retain a prominent prescence.
