Sitting on our kitchen bench right now. First flush of the garden. Just had to share some summer joy.
Extremely pleased to say that a print has already been sold, pre-launch. A large 1.2 metre long version of it now resides on the wall in the meeting room of Turboweb. Thanks Paul for choosing “Ida Range” to grace your newly redecorated meeting room. I visited to see the …
Ida Range is the next release in my Contemporary series of nostalgic landscapes. Taken from the road between Ranfurly and Oturehua, it was at the start of a great catch up weekend with friends in Wanaka. It’s not a series I’m actively pursuing, but when we do get up …
