For this exhibition, their works will be presented as three distinct sections comprising artwork that will be enjoyed by people of all ages and interests. Visitors will see farmyard animals cast in delightful pastels, as well as enjoying cartoons in the style of Thelwell. Also on display will be scenery from around the country, inspired by the works of Davella Gore, and ink and wash images of urban landscapes. Those with an interest in object art will also rejoice at the sight of 19th-century soldiers cast in alloy and painted by hand.

About the Artist:
Graham Christensen lives on a farm near Palmerston North and paints from a large, light-filled studio – a converted room at the back of the barn.
He regularly exhibits throughout the Manawatu/Rangitikei region, including opening his studio annually for the Art Trail Manawatu.
Graham’s paintings depict his life-long love of farming and the unique landscape that New Zealand offers. His latest works are captured moments, many from his son’s beef farm in Pohangina Valley, that illustrate the peaceful beauty that surrounds us - if we take the time to look for it.
Graham was searching for a form of relaxation when he picked up a paint brush in his early 60’s - what he found was a life changing improvement in his mental health. Graham say’s “Painting is so peaceful, to me it’s like meditation. You are very mindful when you paint, you are concentrating on the paint and the movement of the brush. You’re not thinking about anything else and that makes my mind feel very still and spacious.”
Another benefit that he found, is that he now sees beauty in places he previously saw as ordinary. He’s always on the look out for inspiration or a new scene to paint and has learnt that by just taking a moment to stop and really look around, there is beauty everywhere. A mob of cows with their calves peacefully chewing their cud on a sunny afternoon, the contrast of light and the shadows along the fern-lined bank of a meandering stream, even a friendly conversation being held between farmers at the local sock yards invokes in the viewer a memory or a sense that you instinctively know that very scene - and are somehow part of the story.
A charity that is close to Graham’s heart is the Manawatu Rural Support Service, an organisation that specialises in supporting the stability and wellbeing of our local farmers and their families. The proceeds of the sale of ‘Ready for Shearing’ - included in this exhibition, will be donated to this wonderful and very essential, rural service.
Opening hours: Weekdays 10am - 4pm, Saturdays 10am - 1pm. *Waitangi Day - February 7th: 10am - 1pm

After enquiring why there is no receptionist at the Feilding Police Station when they are supposed to be open from 8-4, I got told that because of Covid they are working from home!?🤷🏼♂️

Born in 1935, David Anyon started his career in floral design and went on to forge a successful career in that field. He ran two successful design businesses in Wellington and represented New Zealand at international floristry contests on multiple occasions.
As his success in floral design grew, David began incorporating sculpture into his work. Over time, this evolved into greater experimentation with sculptural materials and eventually, a foray into the painted works pictured here. He applied to his painted works a sculptural quality which gives these canvas works a three-dimensional finish.
As a fine artist, David exhibited across New Zealand, including at the Academy of Fine Arts. It is a great privilege to show David's work in Feilding and we encourage you to come and view these fantastic pieces in person.
