There was such a great vibe at our Petone seaside gallery yesterday, the first day of the Lower Hutt Art Trail with art trailers enjoying seeing all the wonderful local art on display AND watching it being created.

In our upstairs gallery space, Dean Cooper has a great display of new photographs and Marianne Linton de Boer a beautiful display of her new paintings. In our main gallery four artists are Jolene Maciak - printmaking, Emmi - sculpture, Cate Pates ceramics and myself with new watercolours.

We're looking forward to another exciting day today, the 2nd day of our art trail. And we're excited that Beachside Real Fruit Ice Cream is open again for the season.

It's all action at our Petone seaside gallery with lots of art trailers visiting already and lots of arty action happening with demonstrations by our artists. Here Jolene Maciak is showing us how she creates her magical prints, starting with lino cutting. Cate Pates is making a clay whale (I think she said that she saw one passing in front of the gallery?). Marianne Linton is painting the view from the upstairs gallery and Alfred Memelink is trying to paint a more summery view of Wellington.

Bringing the Outside In
The view looking out of the gallery window this morning, just like this painting ready for my exhibition for the Lower Hutt art trail this weekend. Just in case the weather may not be that great, there's free and easy parking right outside and it;s nice and warm inside.
