"We have a good sized
population of royal spoonbills at the Waikanae estuary - recently swelled by new arrivals to around 26 birds. I was hidden in a reed bed adjacent to the Waimanu lagoon yesterday afternoon, and managed to capture these lovely images of a bird blissfully unaware of my presence."

The aim is to create a collage work in the last weeks, using a mix of hand painted and printed papers along with magazine cut-outs. The subject matter will be the written form. Great patterns can be generated from playing around with text so that it’s unreadable and that’s called asemic art. I’ll be teaching a range of art making techniques – trace monoprinting, Gelli-plate printing, stencilling and calligraphic mark making among others. Materials for you to use include GOLDEN’s OPEN Acrylics and High Flow, Yupo , Zeta and tissue paper, a range of inks, calligraphy pens, quills and a wide range of drawing materials. The group size will be limited to 6 people. No previous art experience is necessary! I have two places left – Who’s having them? Details on my website. www.stokes.net.nz...
