Underfoot #4

Underfoot4

This mixed media painting, one of a pair, was inspired by photographs I took of some wonderful rock formation whilst I was staying in Tinopai, New Zealand a few years ago.  The rocks were just near the water’s edge, and although I have accentuated the colours, it was the blues and oranges that caught my eye!

I call this series ‘Underfoot’ as over the years I seem to have developed a habit of taking photos of what I’m standing or walking on, if there’s something that catches my eye, hence ‘underfoot’!

Art Weekly No 135 – The Pioneer Church, NZ

The Pioner Church, NZFor Sale – 5th February 2014

As mentioned in my email, I’ve had this photo put aside to paint for years, and I always thought I’d taken it in Northland, New Zealand, when I spent some time there in 2005, but it appears that’s probably not the case! Now I’m totally flummoxed. The church does certainly seem to be in the style of those built in New Zealand in the 1800’s, but as someone pointed out, it could be Australia as the trees on either side look rather like gum trees and I suspect the dry grassy area in the foreground would fit too. If Australia, it could only be NSW, but at this stage I’ll leave ‘NZ’ in the painting title, and if anyone has any suggestions, I’d be glad to receive them!
