A Trip to the Mount

Will be on display at Art in The Park 2026 (11 - 15 November)

Inspired by the stunning coastal beauty of New Zealand’s Bay of Plenty, A Trip to the Mount captures the vibrant charm of Mount Maunganui, one of the country’s most loved coastal landmarks.

The mountain’s iconic silhouette and rugged slopes are brought to life through rich, three-dimensional texture, highlighting the natural contours of Mauao. Deep emerald greens contrast beautifully with the bright lime-green foothills, while the brilliant blue ocean and expansive sky create a fresh, uplifting coastal atmosphere.

The raised, textured surface adds depth and character to the artwork, making the mountain appear to rise from the canvas. The contrast between the sculpted landscape and the gently textured blue waters creates a striking sense of dimension, bringing this familiar coastal scene to life.

Celebrating the beauty of New Zealand’s coastline, A Trip to the Mount captures the warmth, relaxation and carefree feeling of a day spent by the sea. A vibrant combination of bold colour, unique texture and natural scenery, reflecting the charm of Mount Maunganui and the memories made visiting this much-loved destination.
