Don has long been involved in the arts through music – he’s been in rock bands and participated in musical theatre for most of his life.

Ten years ago, Don started painting. First in acrylics and then in oils. His paintings are now hung in private collections around New Zealand.

Don’s current focus is the art of wood burning (pyrography). It’s an artform that excites him and one he wants to showcase as a true artform, not just a craft. Pyrography is normally created by burning soft woods, but Don’s love of the texture and grains of native woods has led him down a less traditional path. Don’s woodburning is typically done on reclaimed native timber which he cuts and shapes at the Feilding MenzShed before finishing and adding his own artwork at home.

Don is currently busy working on commissions for private and corporate clients. However, a selection of his woodburned charcuterie boards are available to buy now at Feilding Art Centre.

Thanks to everyone who came to meet Robyn Parkinson last week. We all learned lots about how she began the art of spoon carving, the processes undertaken to create her spoons, and what it means to embrace wabi sabi in her artistic practice.

For those who didn't get a chance to come along, you still have until April 19 to see the exhibition. Come along to see spoons in a way you never have before – as icons of domesticity, symbols of beauty, and objects of art.
