'Towards TeWerahi and Cape Maria van Diemen'

(380 x 380)

 

The Far North of the North Island of New Zealand is quite different in visual character to a lot of the rest of

the country. This painting looking west across TeWerahi towards Cape Maria van Diemen, contains some of

the essential elements. In the distance twilight illuminates the dunes and long sandy beach allowing them to

absorb and reflect the light of the surrounding sky while in the foreground the deep red earth shows

through the stunted wind swept scrubland.
