    Whāingaroa Writers World: a natural remedy for abibliophobia

    Whāingaroa Writers World is a natural aid in preventing and relieving abibliophobia (a humorous noun describing the very real fear of running out of reading material). The programme provides a potent dose of highly absorbable workshops, writing events, and books by local Raglan authors for anyone who shares the love of writing, illustrating, and reading.

    Literally couldn’t help but dance

    I’m delighted to invite you to the 12th annual “Figurative” art exhibition at the Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery! And yes, I literally did a crazy, happy dance when Light Space & Time presented their awards for this exhibition. I’m honoured to have 2 artworks receive awards and be exhibited alongside talented artists from around the world.

    Thank you so, so much for being part of my artist journey this year. If you’re heading to Raglan for some sun and surf in the next month, pop into the iHub information centre, where they have a display of art by 3 Raglan artists—including moi! Happy holidays, and I shall be back next year with some bi-i-i-i-g things!!!

    It’s that time of year again! Despite a lockdown hiccup and postponement, we got there! Nearly 40 Raglan artists and I opened our studios for the annual Raglan Arts Weekend over Labour Weekend. Here’s how it all went down.
