This spot on Great Barrier Island means a lot to me as Dad and I visited it many times. I also love painting stones so its perfect! this image is a lot longer than I can get on my site...if interested please email me and I'll send you the full image.

Stopped in this exact spot to eat our picnic lunch and after sitting there gazing out realized it would make a good painting. Great Barrier holds a special place in my heart as Dad ran the naval station there for 13 years.

Love this beach up the top of the Coromandel Peninsula...it is stunning no matter where you are on the beach. I love painting stones so always in my happy place at this bay!
