News article on my NZ Land Wars Series

 

New Zealand land war artHello Friends and Supporters,


There has been interest in my new series of paintings from the local media thanks to Tauranga freelance writer Pete Morris. You can read the article on Sun Live here Learn History for the Future. A similar article should appear in the next issue of The Weekend Sun, so keep a look out if you are local to the Tauranga area.



Best wishes,

New Work | Dawn from Te Ranga.

 

New Zealand Landscap Painting - Te Ranga by Bryce Brown

Hello Friends,

After an early morning visit to the site of The Battle of Te Ranga (1864) many photos, much contemplating, I have painted my first landscape in this sub-series for my New Zealand Land Wars theme. Although I have used landscapes in my work quite a lot recently, the focus has always been on the figures. Dawn from Te Ranga is quite a revolutionary piece for me, in that it is devoid of figures, instead I have played on the presence of the trees on the horizon - almost Kaitiaki (guardian) like in form.



You can see it in my Oak Lane studio, view online and read more about Te Ranga at http://brycebrownart.com/new-zealand-land-wars.html#dawnteranga


Best wishes,


Bryce

New Zealand Land Wars Series "Heeni"

 

New Zealand Land War - Heeni te Kiri Karamu

Hi There,


I have completed the first in a series of works on stories from The New Zealand Land Wars. This piece captures the story of Heeni Te Kiri-Karamu giving Lieutenant-Colonel Booth water at Gate Pa 1864.



I have decided that I'll make each piece in this series available (beginning with this one of course) but there will be conditions as I'd like to display this body of work in its entirety in the near future. Please inquire if you are interested.



Kind regards


Bryce Brown
