Last October we moved from Feilding to Palmerston North. In the process of sorting and packing, I was looking through the photographic images that I had made over a decade ago when we were living out near Colyton, using photo paper, chemicals, sunlight and plants from our garden, and a series of solar plate prints that had I made for a book at about the same time but never completed. There were also some small paintings on paper using oil and cold wax medium, leftovers from a project more recent project. I decided that I would use this material for my next project and pick up with the book idea again. By December 1 had my new workspace ready, I had lots of ideas noted down in my workbook, and I had time to commit to the project. More than two months later my first book (above) is completed.
This looks beautiful Raemon - a real marriage of words and pictures. Pure art!
