The final painting of the transformed window series

I made a series of large paintings “ the Window” series . A Window upon . A Window to drift . A Window to reflect and the Window of the palm ( hand of Fatima

These were displayed at the Manawatu Art Gallery in 2002

A Window to drift
The surfacing of the red phone
A Window upon
Window to reflect

One sold . The window series not complete anymore , I decided to overwork them and change the from Mono grammatical into colour

  1. Currently I am changing these paintings around . They were a series of five paintings . They were exhibited at Te Manawa some years ago and traveled after to the Taupo art Gallery . The series is not complete anymore . Leave a reply
