It’s just a simple travelogue image, but what I like about it is that you don't often see this kind of subject (an entire island) -from this angle (with the clouds dappled across the landscape. Another thing that appeals to me is the island itself seems to be a "miniature" version of the South Island of New Zealand. I think the teal green Pacific probably betrays the fact that it was taken in New Zealand, as I don't recall seeing that elsewhere. I travelled a couple of times between Wellington and Auckland between 2015 and 2017 while I was working in IT (for an international company). I took a few working holidays with my colleagues -and it was a lot of fun -God knows that there had been plenty of years before that when I hadn't travelled at all -and (loving as I do to travel) it was a drag to stay put in one place all of that time. I think that it is one of the greatest luxuries to travel and It's something that I hope to do a lot more of in the future. The colors are Columbia Blue, Cool Grey, Cerulean Frost, Carolina Blue, CG Red, Celadon Green, and Celadon Blue, White and Cultured, and Charcoal. I get a kind of high out of air travel. This may have been a shot that I took while I was flying to Nelson, to kayak there, or it may have taken while I was flying to Auckland to Zipline on Waiheke Island, or to approach a record company in Auckland, or to go to the Annual Christmas party. For a few years there I had plenty of travel -I was in fact travel spoiled, -for a couple of years -which almost made up for many years of being a house-bound musician. The significance of it for me is: Take that journey, you never know when you won't be able to anymore. God! I can't wait until this pandemic is over! The title is in tribute to (Author) Janet Frame. ~Because that is where we are trying to get to (as artists) ~what "Is" Color Palette: #d4d7d9 #20779a #2f1b27 #7d93a5 #0c325b #57829a #304a5e #51a5c3 #8eb8e4 #99c4e4 (You can choose to have your image reproduced in Aluminum, Canvas, Paper, or Photo-paper). Chromoluxe Reproductions: (Limited edition of 10 only for any of my images). Chromoluxe means two things: Durability and Definition. This exclusive edition of 10 images will be created using the new Chromoluxe aluminum printing technique for high-quality large format art. The colors leap from the surface to produce vibrant melodious images. Your investment will retain its birth-date energy and integrity. You will appreciate this stunningly vital picture that is so spirited it will appear to levitate off any wall. The Chromoluxe sublimation technique means that the image is embossed into the slimline metal sheet that has a hanging frame on the back so that it sits out from the wall -by a couple of inches. This means that your rare edition print will seem to “float” just in from of the wall. You won’t need to make a separate payment for framing or worry about breakable glass and expensive heavy frames to carry (if you move to a new house). This print will be scratch-resistant, durable, and will retain the image’s vibrancy ~for a lifetime. This is 21st-century printing, high definition and literally, state-of-the-art. Very few places in the world can produce an image of this size, in this format. Not only will you have a collectible work of art, but it will be rendered in the cutting-edge format. Durable, appreciable, and gallery-quality. Side on, the print appears as a slip sheet of aluminum, from the front, the colors are glossy and intensely vivid. The panel has smoothed corners and looks sleek and elegant. (You can opt for a matte finish if you prefer). Your beautiful art will be carefully packaged in a custom-made box with plenty of protection for shipping. Shipping is tracked and signed for as standard. Takes approximately three weeks to get ready to ship. *(The estimated weight is based on Canvas Gallery Wrap 1.5" deep with 1 Layer of Resin). Shipping costs will vary with the material's weight, I will provide you with an accurate quote prior to your order.

I started drawing as a child, but quickly became enamored with photography, I got my first camera at about 10 (a Box "Brownie") and started making images with that and quickly progressed to a Yoshika SLR (and electro 35). I took art as a subject from the ago of 12 to the age of 18, and also Technical Drawing for a couple of years. Soon after I discovered music and so photography took a back-seat for many years. From music I discovered computers, and when I realized the exciting potential that they offer in terms of images my inspirations took on a new lease of life. I studied Computers at University level in 1997, and loved it so much that I decided to pursue it further, and attended the National College of Design and Technology in Christchurch, NZ. It was there that I started to experiment with images in Ernest. The subject that I covered were 3D Modelling, 3D Animation, Audio Visual, The Web and CD ROM production. I experimented with Strata creating 3D models, and animations and designed The "Nova" car and the "Millennium" housing design, also a chair, the P.O.D. (Positional Orientating Digitator). This was before Steve Jobs released the iPOD. These were industrial designs, But I do have one still image from that period which I am including in my entry. That year my partner had a son, and he had health complications, and so I had to put aside art and concentrate on finding work. From there my life had been about music and computers, until my band broke up around 2007, and I suddenly found myself with lots of free time and a copy of Photoshop and a copy of Paintshop Pro.
