Series - Christchurch NZ
As it was ...

My Christchurch Series came to fruition after I travelled NZ with a group of artists. We painted in Christchurch for just one day, it was a truly magical experience: people came to chat and sit with us while we painted and drew, so friendly and warm and genuine!! This all happened just a couple of days before the big quake in February 2011, hence my tribute to a beautiful city and it's amazing citizens.

There are several versions of each subject and/or title but here are some images for your viewing pleasure!!

You can purchase your own Christchurch art by calling me on 0064 95768393 or email me here

Quality Guarantee: All my watercolours are painted with Winsor & Newton's most durable 
lightfast pigments. With the longevity of the premium quality watercolour paints I use, your 
painting will become a family heirloom and passed down to subsequent generations. If properly cared for, watercolour paintings will last as long, if not longer, than oil paintings. I only paint on 100% cotton rag paper, mostly Arches and Fabriano, and frame to conservation standard with 
acid free materials.

Want me to teach a workshop in your area?

Just email your details to me and we'll see what we can arrange. I'm happy to fly to anywhere in the world to teach - just let me know where you are and how many people you could organize to join us. It's not as difficult as it sounds - just contact a local painting group if you're not already in one and put the idea to them. For instance to fly to the United States or Europe for a workshop I would need about 10-15 people for a 2 day class paying $150 each per day. The closer you are to New Zealand (where I live) the cheaper the workshop would be - Australia would cost about $100 each per day. Within NZ is about $75 each per day. email your details to me here
