'Stop Me and Buy One!'
I'm back to acrylic. It is interesting to explore and contrast both the transparent nature of acrylic combined with solid, bold colour and it was working with the material that gave suggestion to this current work where 'ice' and 'cream' formed as visual images and the obvious combination evolved - and in combination with inspiration from vintage TipTop advertising the current collection took shape. The concept developed and became defined as a movement grew in New Zealand post lockdown towards reminding Kiwis of what existed in their own back yard and to go out and explore. Thus a reminder of the simple pleasure of a walk to the dairy took on a new relevance. The collection has grown in range and ‘flavours’ and continues to be developed
