Artists' Views: Artists and Their Works

September 2025 - Pauline Bellamy with a recent painting of Otago Harbour at Bellamy's Metro on 51 Moray Place.  [also see: Stuart Island painting]

November 2025 - Several artists at the "Art in November" group show have focused on the Harbour in their works.  This is a group that studied art at open courses intended for pre-Polytech students held at Kings High School about 15 years ago.  Theyhave stayed together, meeting at the NE Valley Community Room to critique their works.
Mary Thompson had several works in vertical format, which she noted forced her to think a bit more about the composition.
Stephen Packer notes, "There must be something about vocanic cones...they appear repeatedly in my views of Dunedin and th Peninsula...again!  The past certainly shapes the present."
