About This Painting
This view over the bush-clad hills in the Coromandel, on the western side of the Bay of Plenty, has a fascinating, wild wilderness feel about it which is what prompted me to create this painting. There is something about it that truly conveys the evocative nature of many of New Zealand’s wild places.

This mountain range is called “The Pinnacles”, and it lies close to the Kauaeranga Valley in Coromandel Forest Park.

Oils on board 16 × 13.25in.

    I like this very much! The colours are really beautiful, ranging from cool to warm green tones. I also like the flow of lines.
    Lovely!

  • Hello Anne – had just posted the above reply and was blown away when I looked at your profile and find you are a Lord of the Rings fan – maybe that’s what drew you to this too. I love strongholds like this in the wilderness!
