Almost a decade ago, David Anyon and his family kindly donated a large quantity of paintings and sculptures to the Feilding and District Society.

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.

Hi everyone,
Hokitika has been named the most welcoming town in NZ in Booking.com's 10th annual Traveller Review Awards.
Would be keen to hear from those who live there or who have visited whether they think the town really is exceptionally friendly. What makes it a welcoming place, or otherwise? Were there any cafes, restaurants, shops or other places you received a particularly warm welcome?
Lake Tekapo and Oamaru came in second and third place respectively, followed by Cambridge, Picton, Invercargill, Martinborough, Kerikeri and Palmerston North. Would also love to hear from you if you have thoughts on these places. Please include 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it to appear in a travel article.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts?

This week at Feilding Art Centre, reflect on the beauty of our rural landscape in this exhibition of oil and acrylic paintings by popular Manawatu artist, Graham Christensen.

The works included in this exhibition are a meditation on the moments of peace and beauty that shape rural life - calves chewing their cud on a sunny afternoon, the contrast of light and the shadows along the fern-lined bank of a meandering stream, a friendly conversation being held between farmers at the local sock yards.

Entry is free, and all works are for sale - including one painting which is being sold to raise funds for Manawatu Rural Support.

Martin from Ashhurst - Pohangina

Jacinda is now facing a problem that has never been faced before - a war on our own territory - and the poor lady just has no records to fall back on. Back in the 1940's when the UK was under threat, Parliament was dissolved and a co-alition was set in place. This gave us some very severe measures - rationing of many food items for instance - and people were requested, nay - forced to grow their own vegetables, have chooks in their backyards, trading amongst neighbours, local councils let out allotments for anyone to grow more vegetables. You just don't know how bad it could get - it least we are not putting up with air raids and bombing.
Give Jacinda a break, she's doing the best that she can, she doesn't need all the hindrance she's getting from the anti-vaxxers and the nay-sayers.
