September 2020
After a few days of rest following the delivery of my work to a group show at a local Bay of Islands gallery, in Kerikeri, The Beauty of Resilience, I embarked on a new series, “New Beginnings”. Inspired by Spring here in NZ, it’s the season to throw caution to the wind and experiment with pops of vibrant colour.
Bold and beautiful – it’s time to have some fun.
Gone are the pale, restful shades of my Soften series, “new beginnings” ups the ante with pops of painterly colours to brighten and beautify.
Spoiled for choice when it comes to the colours we can play with, “new beginnings” is inspired by fresh spring blooms. Think lime and new growth greens, fragrant yellow freesias, flaming coral-reds, and more
The response has been brilliant—reminding me of the early excitement when I first shared my idea to create a Passion Pack—the forerunner to my bestselling book, How to Find Your Passion and Purpose.
“Such happy work.”
“Lovely colours and painterliness. Nice melding of the realistic and abstract, too. These are spirit lifters!”
“Love it.”
This series is influenced by and dedicated to lovers of colour and all things floral
