About me
Hamish is a Kāpiti based printmaker and painter. He has recently returned home to NZ after 14 years living in London. His work consistently features landscapes, seascapes or horizons. Combining painting, printmaking, mixed media and digital manipulation, he layers traditional and modern techniques to create fresh perspectives.
"Having grown up in New Zealand, coastal and mountain themes are predominant in my work. Whilst living in London, my work became influenced by how man-made structures interact with the landscape. I feature the contrast between the strong, angular lines of architectural forms (usually brutalist or modernist structures) interacting with the fluid, organic backdrop of nature."
Hamish is a member of ArtCan, a charitable arts organisation that supports emerging and established artists through profile raising activities, philanthropic events and exhibitions.
He has exhibited in galleries in London and around the UK, New York, and New Zealand. His work is held in public and private collections in the UK, USA, Europe, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
