Morning Sunshine

This artwork bathes in soft, pale colors that evoke the tranquility of a morning sunrise. The gentle hues create a soothing atmosphere, while the composition's geometric elements add subtle complexity. 'Morning Sunshine' is a serene and elegant visual experience."

When I work on these timber artworks I spend a lot of time making sure those pieces of timber work together. To put random colourful shapes is easy. The challenge is to build tension and harmony at the same time. To get the observer's eye running all around to find new corners and angles to explore. I believe River Valley is capable of all these. Enjoy.

"Re" is a big part of my life. I love to reduce, reuse, and recycle whatever I can in my personal and artistic life too. Owning a name that means reborn cannot be a coincidence overall.

The "Re" series was inspired by a piece I made many years ago to decorate my home. The idea came to me after seeing some recycled furniture at a home show built from demolished timber following the 2011 Christchurch earthquake.

Take some time to discover and get lost in those forms.
