Muriwai is celebrating Artweek Auckland with 10 studios open as part of an art trail I am proud to be one of them :) I have a range of new and old favourites up in my gallery.

Ocean Gallery has a busy few weeks ahead :)

Just opened the gallery again after the last lockdown.
Thrilled to have a whole lot of new work up on a favourite topic of mine - the magic space we find "Where the Sea kisses the Shore"
I`m looking forward to sharing it with all of you 😊

Today I had the pleasure of working with Pat and deciding the layout of her Antarctica exhibition. I`m so looking forward to the opening this Saturday :)

This weekend will be the last chance to see these works at the Ocean View Art gallery as next week a solo exhibition is going up :)

I`m so enjoying having these three wonderfully warm works by Melinda Macdonald in the gallery for the "Midwinter in Muriwai" exhibition. Melinda grew up on a farm in Muriwai. Her art is inspired by a sense of freedom, independence and the seasons of nature. The gallery is open this weekend 10.30am to 5pm at 77 Waitea Rd, Muriwai

Muriwai is fabulous in Midwinter!

From the photographic series "My Shadow an I " by Judy Stokes on exhibition until the end of the week.

This exhibition is on for another week at Ocean View Art gallery.
