A New Zealand artist is showcasing a collection at the Estuary Art Centre this week.

Tut Blumental specialises in large acrylic contemporary landscapes, and will have Coastal Landscapes displayed from 9am to 4pm from Tuesday, 31 October (today) until Thursday, 2 November, and from 9am to 3pm on Friday, 3 November.

The entrance is free to the art centre.

Tut takes inspiration from the views around her.

“I create abstract landscapes exploring the relationships and contradictions in nature by presenting dramatic contrasts between light and dark.”

“In my paintings, I visualise the movement of the wind, waves, and clouds, emphasising a particular day or a season.”

Another aspect of what makes Tut’s paintings so captivating is how she uses colours to radiate off and blend into each other, creating a magical, atmospheric painting.

Her paintings allow the mind of the viewer to drift into them, taking the viewer to a place where there is a warm sunrise that is taking over the night sky, where the pink clouds are being reflected in the sea’s surface, transforming the water to appear as a never-ending supply of strawberry cream.
