Michael Smither

Michael Smither is laying out his coloured tiles to demonstrate to me his colour theory relating to music. This is Michael's invention and he has been working on this theory for 40 or so years. My couple of days with Michael and Gian were very fruitful. I saw and took photographs of Michaels latest paintings in production. On the day of my departure I sneaked down to the Otama beach and caught 2 nice fat Kahawai as a gift for Michael and Gian. www.theimprint.co.nz

Cliff Whiting

My yellowXpress 5000 printing press in Cliff Whiting's Studio, Russell, Bay of Islands.
Cliffs studio is jam packed with wonderful art, sculpture and equipment! The painting you can see is one of a series of the first waka to land in New Zealand.
