This painting looks up into and through the branches of a Pohutukawa tree as the sunlight streams through the leaves and flowers to the ground below.

The painting is acrylics on canvas and measures 200 x 914 mm - it is unframed as the painting continues around all sides of the work.

The sea splashes up and over the rocks at stunning Little Barrier island (Te Hauturu-0-Toi), and the pohutukawa trees extend across the point in the distance. Elements which for me capture the joy, beauty and mystery of this place, which I experienced in a recent visit.

Painted in 2001, this water colour work has until now been in my private collection. It shows how my work has evolved over the last 20 years to what it is today.

The image size of this framed painting is 435 x 710mm - price $3,900.

This painting was taken from a photo I took as I was on my way to Mita Bay to go camping. It was such a beautiful day it reminded me of this poem by Rumi: What a day today. There are two Suns rising.... ! What a day. Not like any other day. LOOK...! The Light is shining in your HEART.... The wheel of life has stopped. O you who can see into your own HEART.... What a day, This is your day.

This painting was sold May 2022 for $7,400

I love these daisies - they liven and brighten a room, the epitome of bright and cheerful.

I saw this amazing plant while I was out walking around Grey Lynn during Auckland's last big lockdown. I'd never seen it before and I just thought it was amazing. It's called Echium Candicans, the pride of madeira - as it is native to the island of madeira.

This lovely work of acrylics on canvas measures 1045mm x 1225mm,and is complimented with a lovely wooden frame.

"Pride of Madeira" is my most recent big work - and shows how my style is evolving to a more abstract free expression, all the while keeping a play of the new Zealand light on form.

This painting is taken from a photo while driving to French Pass, the beautiful scenery making the road difficult to focus on. I had to pull over lots! This work is acrylics on birchwood board and measures  200 x 200mm
