Last week for PulseArt exhibition
"My paintings are of moments that have caught my attention... They are little flashes of memory and image. Introspection, for me, is a going inwards. That is now partly triggered by reflecting on my illness (cancer) without it “knocking me down.”" - Beth Hudson
"In this instance the painting (in this exhibition) takes on a life of its own, going beyond the chalked outline of a hand, converting it into something rich and vibrant." - Fran Marno
"My partner is writing a book... based on a chess board with 2 Queens on the board... Hence, I am working with canvas squares like a chess board with imagery of mine and my partner’s scarves, which represent our bodies." - Sue Marshall
"I was drawn to the shape and material of the fishing weights; they look like water droplets and they have been hot and molten and are now cold and set. It got me thinking of memories, embarrassing, passionate, sad and happy ones..." - Cath Head

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
