Open Now: Our Rural Environs
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.
