Now That's What I Call Techno

1994 oil on board 1200 x 800mm $850
I went to visit Orgh one time, out Takanini way. He was playing some really loud techno music on the stereo.

Orgh said, “That’s what I call techno.”
While I was listening to the music, I took a pencil and doodled to the beat. Then I held up the drawing and said, “Now that’s what I call techno!”

Hot Water Beach is on the East Coast of the Coromandel Peninsula in New Zealand. Natural hot springs bubble up through the sand, but can only be accessed at low tide. For several hours around the low tide, dozens of people descend on the hot spot on the beach with spades and dig themselves small hot pools in the sand. The result is a free hot mineral spa pool - until the returning tide finally sends a cold wave over the whole thing. The crowd is watched over by two young women who are surf lifesavers.

Planet Rangitoto

2016 acrylic on canvas 510 x 510mm sold
Planet Rangitoto shows Auckland’s Hauraki Gulf around the edge of a circular sea.
The landmasses shown are (anti-clockwise from the top): Rangitoto Island, Waiheke, Motutapu and Rakino Islands, The Noises Islands, Mt Moehau on the Coromandel Peninsula, Tiritiri Matangi Island, Little Barrier Island (Hauturu), Whangapraoa Peninsula and Kawau Island. Most of the painting was done about ten years ago, with the two inner circles and the thin line circles being added in 2016. The thin line circles were drawn with Molotow markers, the first time I have tried this relatively new art product.
