Nelson


Flax View

Painted at the end of a long hot summer when I seemed to see these warm orange flax ponds everywhere. In this painting I was hoping to capture some of the movement in these flax fronds as they moved in the warm breeze.

Tahunanui Beach

A spring of changing weather and skies inspired this series of very small paintings. I love the challenge of painting on these small box canvases.

Cloudscape Tahunanui

What I love about the Nelson skyscape is the way that the sky is always changing. This is a typical view of the Tahunanui ridge looking from the beach, with clouds building up on the hills behind Nelson.
