                Latest commissioned work 'A Heart's Journey, Hamilton's Gap"
​                                                     Oil on canvas  1500mm x 1000mm
January 2023 
 
Now that our borders are opening again, I look forward to having people from throughout New Zealand and overseas back visiting our studio for tuition. So if you are interested in this please contact me.

In the same vein as last year, my time is spent doing almost 100% commissioned work, so I haven’t had time in my work schedule to paint a work for general exhibition. For this reason, I would like to share my latest completed commissioned works with you. I have really enjoyed these and this year's commissions have allowed me to paint subjects which are very close to my heart, such as seascapes and landscapes with figures and of course florals.

Featured below is a recent commissioned Oil on canvas of a client’s children depicting elements of their summer holidays at Grahams beach, New Zealand.

I understand that these are fairly unprecedented times throughout the world and I like to think that despite all the uncertainty and gloom that surrounds us in many ways, I am able to help in my own way by providing images and reminders of the incredible beauty and miracle that is life in all its forms.
If you would like to peruse my inventory of prints that are for sale on this website, please go to the 'Giclee Prints' tab on the bar at the top of this page

Kind regards and stay well,
