Te Matau a Pohe/graphic

The first thing I noticed living on top of a mountain was the path of the sun. Living in cities you never really appreciate how it varies during the course of a year. I love the maritime setting of Whangarei, with an ever changing, bustling harbour, and a wild coastline with sublime beaches. I’ve spent a day on a beach in the middle of summer and not seen a soul, and I like that. |
You can go bush, there are great tracks and trails, I’ve seen Kaka rollicking through the tree lines of Te Whara (Bream Head) and the view from the top is awesome. At night you hear the resident kiwi’s distinctive calls while Marsden Point glistens like a small city across the harbour.
Whangarei has a vibrant arts scene and the people are a constant source of inspiration. This all adds up to fantastic travel and landscape opportunities.
I am currently resident artist at Tuatara Design Store in Whangarei, you can pop by anytime to view my work or have a chat (phone ahead as my hours are odd :)). I also have work at Reybourne House, The Bach, The Deck and of course you can check out my website. I am more than happy to consider commission work having undertaken variously, splashback images, wallpaper prints, golf course imagery for a new website, and products for jewelry and pet care.
