About
After completing two degrees at Otago University, Dunedin New Zealand, Hamish worked as a physiotherapist before embarking on his artistic career. Initially concentrating on sculpture then changing his attention to painting . His style is characterised by clean precise imagery often depicting stylised representational New Zealand landscapes and often incorporating iconic architecture. His interest in the relationship between the Landscape and human intervention is often present and Hamish endevours to portray this in a contemporary manner. He is fond of looking through his rose tinted glasses at times gone by.
Recently Hamish has produced some portraiture works which adds a further dimension to his work on offer.
His work has a feeling of space and a sense of the serene created by leaving out unnecessary imagery creating a stripped back essential image. Taking time to render a seamless drift of tone and a conscious pushing and pulling of perspective providing an intriguing and rewarding visual experience.
