Rose

 
This photo is of an artificial rose,
the type that has a small light bulb in it.

Two Goats


 
 
This photo is another that is the beginning
of a tryptych at least.
 
I think that Trinity and Whitebait should be
the other legs of the tripod.

Waves


 
 
I’m gathering my wave photographs together
tonight. I’m not sure whether I’ve
posted this one before, but I’ve several
of them and I get confused.

Studio Walls

 
Today I began, for the first time in ages,
organising the walls of my studio.
Basically I’m doing a ruthless rehang.
I decided to start with my left hand. The wall
to the left of where I sit when I write on the
computer.
Here are 3 recent works, they begin
the line.

The Prosthetic

 
 
Here is a prosthetic leg that is on display at
the Sarjeant Gallery in Whanganui. The leg is
from the collection of the Whanganui Museum.

Portraits

 
 
With Paul McNamara in Wanganui, I’m working
on putting together an exhibition of portraits
opening on Friday October 1st.
 
Yesterday we began looking at some of the photos
that we might include. Here are some.
Many of them have not been published
or exhibited before.

Mishima

 
 
Mishima is New Plymouth’s Japanese
Sister City. This is part of a garden in
Pukekura Park in which that friendship
is celebrated.
Just in case you think, as yesterday I
wrote about Kunming, our Chinese Sister City,
that New Plymouth has lots
of sisters, alas it doesn’t.
Mishima and Kunming are it although there
is a coastal landform an hours
drive up the coast which is called
The Three Sisters.
