Just finished the artwork to illustrate this complex poem. Will start to add some interpretative notes over the next few weeks. Meantime, here are the 400 mm x 400 mm collaged intaglio etchings. There are 4 pages in the collection. Any comments email me or reply here in the forum.

Art Group reconvenes on Monday 30th May, at 09:30. I will have on exhibition the books from Printopia plus some of my latest Sailing to Byzantium collages, as well as some framed prints going to down to Imprint Gallery in Tauranga.

Just did a PDF for Pentecost which utilizes the Sailing to Byzantium theme. View it here

Hello everyone
A date correction for reconvening art group. 
It is Monday 29 May.
The following note has also been sent to ECB Parish. Sorry for the mistake.
You are warmly invited to the Monday 29 May meeting of Trinity Art Group, 09:30 - 10:45.
I will be exhibiting the 6 books from the Printopia NZ exhibition two weekends ago, plus a selection of framed prints off to Imprint Gallery, Tauranga, next day.
There will be a very short talk about some of the poems I've illustrated. 
I also hope to have a copy of the next study zine Seven harder pieces through the lens of practical theology.
We can see whether or not there is interest in holding a winter study group around this material.
I've attached a link to the prayer material I've prepared for Pentecost Sunday for Mt Albert Methodist Church. Let me know if you want a printed copy.
