From Dean: "Antique gold, brooding browns and dusky purples provide a twilight mood. Aroha ( love) is imagined as a winged angelic being hovering over the land and water, forming ripples that travel outward in all directions.
The patterning in the centre depicts many balls of twine interconnected, without beginning or end. These are the ties that bind us: to loved ones, whanau, community and ultimately our nation of Aotearoa. Aroha is still moving over the land and connecting people to the source of our oneness"
Story from Dean: Tui Song is quite dazzling with its sweeping geometry and iridescent plumage.

From the artist "We live in a world that is busy. Most people are saturated with noise and fast images, through quicker access to digital devices and their environment . This oil painting is calm and a place to rest, my intention in this painting is not only in the softness of the work but also in the title ‘Softly the Sky Set, just reminding us of the peace that is present"

Message from the artist: "For me letting go of my daughters seemed so much harder. The world is so big and exciting and full of opportunities. I raised fiercely independent daughters, yet when the time came to say goodbye (and it came around all too quickly) it was terrifying. I LOVED it. But I was not prepared for it to change."

Message from the artist: "Who remembers the View Master? My idea of a mobile phone from the past. If only life was as simple as flicking through some images, rather than the pressures of todays’ technology. The idea that ‘Likes’ means you are liked? Even if you know the person or not. That selfies are so manipulated it’s almost impossible to see the real person. I guess that reality is questionable".
Note: original refers to a canvas where only on is created
