Local, rural artist Graham Christensen opens studio to public this weekend

Natasha from Ashhurst - Pohangina

Graham Christensen is opening his Ashhurst studio this Saturday and Sunday 10am – 4pm. 84 Glenburn Road, Ashhurst (off Napier Rd - see map in photos).

Everyone is welcome to drop in and visit the studio to view his latest paintings, have a chat, and see an artist at work.

About Graham
Graham Christensen did not pick up an artist’s brush until his early 60’s but quickly showed a natural talent with oils and a great affinity with the rural landscape.

He lives on a farm near Palmerston North in the Manawatu region and works from a large, light-filled studio – a converted room at the back of the barn.

Graham’s paintings depict his life-long love of farming and the rugged landscape that New Zealand offers. His latest works are a reminiscence of rural life and moments in time that make up the rich tapestry of our farming communities and their significant place in our country’s history.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
