All original paintings are conservation framed unless otherwise stated. We now use UV70 glazing for its brilliant clarity and virtually non-reflective enhancement of the image.
Disclaimer: I am better at painting than I am at maintaining a website. Understandable: my goal is to have you buy my paintings; I do not want you to employ me to develop another poor website!
If you see a painting you like on the Paintings pages and the description does not say SOLD, then it is likely to be available even if it does not appear on this page. Please, forgive me - then ask about the piece that piques your interest. If a painting is no longer available, I enjoy responding to requests to paint the topic (or similar) again.
ALL art reproduction prints are in Limited Edition runs of 35 for each available size: original, and, for selected prints, one or two smaller sizes. All are available framed or unframed. Please feel free to discuss with us your framing requirements.
Reproduction Availability:. We hold only a few stocks of prints in our studio, preferring instead to provide you with professionally printed work hot off the press in superb condition. Our reproduction work is entrusted to one of New Zealand’s best recognised print companies.

Original Watercolour - Framed
This East Otago scene can be found repeated throughout the area. Old homesteads, the centre of modest farm holdings, are abandoned to dereliction while the business of large scale farming continues around them. Progress, I suppose, but a sense of loss too.
