Medical Research Foundation

4/10/2017

The recent art and opera fundraiser for the Medical Research Foundation has recently taken place at Christchurch Art Gallery and I was delighted to once again be asked to support this worthy event with a donated painting. 'Red on White' 80x80cms acrylic on canvas original sold as part of this evening and I hear it was the most successful evening for all the hardworking team behind the scenes. Thanks for asking me, I love supporting events like these wherever possible.

Winston visits studio

Meet Winston my new fur baby. He's only 8 weeks old  and a bit of a scallywag. He visited me for the first time today at the studio/gallery. He's loving his new sister Daisy from the same parents but a year or so apart. As you can imagine our place is in chaos! Maybe we should try him with a paintbrush?! Photo by Sam Frost.

A while ago I was asked to undergo a commission for a couple's newly married son and his family to provide them with happy memories of their wedding in New Zealand. Several months later. Here we are with a delightful photo sent from London of my acrylic on canvas 'Curiousity' just arrived 12,000 miles away!  Love my 'job'

Hampstead Affordable Art Show

7/2/2016

June 2016 and during our trip to the UK we were excited to be able to visit the Hampstead Affordable Art Show in London.  Thousands of visitors and hundreds of art works from galleries all around the UK and the world.  Exciting sculptures, ceramics and installations all for sale and very accessible to the public. We were amazed at the number of visitors bringing their pooches along!  We even purchased a little piece that we felt we couldn't leave behind. Definitely worth a visit and thanks to Wills Art Warehouse for the complimentary tickets.

All smiles today as I have finally finished and sold the recent Peony commission which has been a labour of love and so much enjoyment to create. Looking forward to seeing it hanging now!

Peony commission

5/26/2016

0 Comments

 
My latest work has been a labour of love for a lovely client moving into her new home following the earthquakes.  She approached me several months ago to discuss commissioning an original painting for her hallway. We had lots of chats and waited until the peonies were flowering and took heaps of images to work from. Over a matter of months she has been popping in to see progress-its such a great process.  I have just finished the last layer of glazing and today it will be varnished. She saw it yesterday and loves it- five times more that she thought she would! Had so many comments about it from visitors to the gallery and on facebook - circular and measuring 130cms in diameter its a biggie and going to be a real wow piece. Can't wait to see it hanging. If you want to work on a special idea email me at: beverley@beverleyfrost.co.nz and we can have a chat.

Art Meets Opera Christchurch Art Gallery

Delighted to be asked to be a part of the very recent Art Meets Opera evening at the Christchurch Art Gallery with the auction of this large acrylic on canvas painting called '5 o'clock Shadows'.  The fundraiser was planned to raised money for The Christchurch Medical Research Fund with this years' focus being The Brain Injury Trust.  Pleased that quite a few people wanted to take this painting home. It was from an idea that I suddenly saw on a wall late one afternoon and snapped a photo on my iphone.  Inspiration comes at the strangest times and yes the wall was just that intense yellow!

Progress on the peony as it starts to take shape. Really enjoying the muted colours and softness of this one as it takes shape. Just on the first layer so a long way to go yet. Might have to sit on the floor to paint the lower half!

Fun evening at the gallery at the weekend hosting a group of local art lovers from an art collecting club. Along with Paul Smith and Gail Batchelor, two of our Art Box gallery artists who gave talks about their work, we enjoyed bubbles and cheese.
