Arts & Photography

Taranaki-based digital artist Alastair Tattersall has a cool range of Aotearoa art, prints, puzzles and stuff available from the States-based DeviantART website http://abatnz.deviantart.com. His artwork is printed onto archival quality paper (150 year lifespan) and is guaranteed to make any Kiwi living overseas long for home! Just in time for Christmas, the prints are available in many sizes and formats and make great gifts. The abstract nature of much of it also lends a sophisticated air to boardrooms and offices anywhere. Larger, signed and limited edition of 5 canvases of selected pieces are available framed or unframed directly from the artist, just drop him a line at alastair@abat.co.nz.
If anybody is in Taranaki over the summer you will also be able to see his animated "digitaldistillations" on four huge screens throughout Pukekura Park over the duration of the Festival of Lights. There will also be a live performance in the park with Taranaki's own songwriting genuis Billy Rubins on guitar and a unique "waterfall" screen in the middle of the lake.
kiwiartz.co.nz/ -- Our gallery contains a top quality collection of New Zealand Arts and Crafts — including water color and oil paintings, sculpture, jewellery, hand blown glass, ceramics, wood, textiles, garden art and Maori and Pacific Island Art for sale by Kiwiartz.
scenestealer.co.nz/ -- As the name Scene Stealer suggests, Pippa de Court sneaks around capturing tantilizing slices of  New Zealand with a variety of cameras slung over her shoulder. A teacher by profession, but now a full-time photographer and designer, she  skirts the countryside and zigzag across the beautiful islands of New Zealand. On return she releases the precious booty onto different media – womenÕs tops, photographic cards, block mounted  and framed enlarged prints.
She wants to bring the expat Kiwi girls back home, so has devised a method! Send them a 'slice of New Zealand' on a gorgeous short sleeved or 3/4 length  top or newly released zip up hoodies. That will surely make them homesick. Or you can simply treat yourself to one.
prints.co.nz/ -- New Zealand Fine Prints Ltd has been New Zealand's specialist supplier of fine art prints since 1966. Your purchases from us are covered by our money back guarantee and your online order will be processed securely. Because all prints are held in stock we offer prompt delivery throughout NZ (for $6) or around the world (for $15).
