BIRDS EYE VIEW Birds Eye View brings a range of style, colour and imagery to Te Huanui this month. From mixed media birdlife to landscapes in oils from Tricia Hewlett, Hewlett Elizabeth Rosa, Rosa Sarah Beal and Viv Wotton there is something for everyone. Birds Eye View opens Friday, March 25th and runs until Thursday, April 28th. Due to the current Red Light Setting, no official opening will be held. ♦ Tricia Hewlett lives and works on Hinewai Reserve, a 1,500 hectare nature reserve on the doorstep of Akaroa. Her inspiration comes from the thriving wildlife at her door and throughout Aotearoa. Tricia's work is predominantly in graphite, with a move towards mixed media for this exhibition. Community taught, her knowledge comes from a variety of artists and many hours of practice. ♦ Viv Wotton made a career changing decision in 2012 to pursue her artistic passion, graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2016. Viv doesn't limit herself to any particular medium but finds herself coming back to painting, drawing and printmaking as her favourite creative outlets. Her inspiration comes from landscapes, particularly memory evoking scenes and from birdlife, she photographs. ♦ Elizabeth Rosa is a self-taught Christchurch based artist with a passion for the New Zealand environment and the creatures that inhabit it. Elizabeth works in acrylics, oils and vivid colours to create regal-like portraits of native birdlife, full of attitude and personality. ♦ Sarah Beal is a self-taught painter, working almost exclusively in oils, having taken up painting fifteen years ago. Sarah loves to paint abstract landscapes, enjoying the freedom and happiness her imagined scenes bring. Having her work described as deconstructed landscapes, is an apt description, as there is a clear element of nature in her works. See advertisement in this issue for contact details.
