About the Work
Done
onsite
up
the
river.
Not
exhibited.
Relates
to
a
large
painting
that
sold
to
Massey
University.
I
had
gone
up
river
with
Henry
Bennett,
a
local
kaumatua.
Whilst
not
formally
welcomed
on
most
places
I
felt
at
time
comfortable
with
painting
or
drawing
anything
visible
from
the
road.
