STORY


The Kaikoura Peninsula is a little bit magic. Its waters are home to seals, dolphins, sea lions, abundant seafood (kaimoana), and sea birds. It’s historically significant for Maori and has a whaling story. 


Kaikoura is where my family hail from, and where my dear parents grew up, farmed, and are laid to rest, beside my grandparents. 

  

This work depicts the wintery Kaikoura mountains from what is locally known as the Point, with typical farmland in the foreground.  


I used impasto techniques, with thick paint applied with a palette knife to give a lovely richness and texture to the work.
