My new SPRING COLLECTION of original #littleprayer paintings

This Spring I am having a lot of fun playing with a new color palette inspired by the colors that I observe in my garden. This is a new season of life for me where I am spending a lot of time at home, gardening, painting, mothering, restoring, re-generating, praying, meditating, studying Christianity and observing nature.

Being able to spend a lot of my days now focusing on experiential color therapy and painting, is another dream come true for me.

The yellow used in this series refers to the gorgeous sunny faces of the Daffodils that have now sprung up everywhere with the coming of Spring. Also represented in this series are the kumara and riwai (potatoes) that are growing in our garden, mounded with earth around them to keep them warm - a symbol of sustenance, survival, and nourishment for the family, and a gift from God.

The whitebait that have started running in the river here in Ōtaki are also represented in this series, and I am looking forward to cooking and eating the ones in my freezer given to me by a lovely client!

These paintings are colored songs of praise and worship for our life-giving God and His gifts given to us through the physical natural world, whenua (earth), maara (gardens), flowers, trees, plants and natural kai.

The abundance of nature is revered in the SPRING COLLECTION, and the colors of the gorgeous wildflowers springing up at this time of year also - I love observing the different wildflowers and their colors in our garden.

Spring is a time of re-generation. fecundity, new life, birth, new beginnings, and fertility and these themes are symbolized throughout this new series of works.

The earth literally becomes ‘born again’ during the Spring season, and having recently been baptized into Gods Kingdom at Rangiātea Church here in Ōtaki, I now have a deeper understanding of what it means to be ‘born again’, and natures demonstration of this during the Spring season is truly a sight to behold, and to be a part of, as a human engaging with nature.

Some of my latest paintings coming at you from Wellington

Kia ora!

I returned home to Porirua, Wellington, Aotearoa at the end of January 2020 for some much needed time in my own rohe (tribal area). I will continue to be based at home in the Welington region for the foreseeable future due to the current pandemic.

I have had to postpone, cancel and reschedule many pre-planned overseas trips, kaupapa and clients for 2020 and I will be in touch with you directly about those if you were to be involved in anything that i’ve had to change due to current travel restrictions worldwide.

Here are some of my recently completed paintings, all infused with a HEALING intention. More paintings are currently in progress and I look forward to keeping you updated on new works available.
