Eastern beaches in the Hauraki Gulf see the sun rise and rain storms sweep in. There is a light that is magical. This place, this expanse is fragile. One Pohutakawa holds on to the cliff face, it prevails. In this collection of work I respond to eastern beaches. From initially starting with charcoal studies I have developed to a more abstract form. I have enjoyed this journey of discovery with new materials, incorporating cold wax, oil sticks and collage. I hope to share the emotion I feel about this place. How precious the landscape is and the life force, the natural energy I experience.
