This exhibition at Gallery De Novo in Dunedin from 11-23 April was part of Wild Dunedin – New Zealand Festival of Nature 2026
This exhibition presented new paintings inspired by my recent voyage aboard Ponant Explorations Le Soleal. The journey traced a passage through New Zealand’s remote Subantarctic Islands, including the Snares, Ulva, Auckland and Campbell Islands.
I’m accustomed with my plein air practice to working directly with the landscape in all conditions! At times it was very challenging!
It was a truly amazing experience and I’m very grateful to Ponant and the Southland Art Foundation for being able to experience this special voyage.
