Ceramics, paintings and mixed media pieces will be exhibited by members of Jade River Arts, in the Old Masonic Hall, in Warkworth, from January 15 to 17.
The theme of the free exhibition is Essentially Bush and Sea.
Now in its ninth year, the exhibition is the work of four local women – Jocelyn Adolph, Vivienne Paterson, Doris Riederer and Anna Sutherland – who are inspired by Mahurangi’s coastal lifestyle and seaside holiday atmosphere.
“Our beautiful surroundings provide unlimited inspiration and our passion is capturing the essence of New Zealand’s flora and fauna in a variety of media,” Doris says.
Exhibition visitors can expect to see works depicting native birds and coastal scenes, flowers, fish, shells, dinghies and birdbaths handcrafted in clay.
Some of the pottery pieces are combined with driftwood and old fence battens, and there are funky retro-chairs to make them “bach-worthy”.
The exhibition is open from 9am to 5pm.
