The Kiwi Experience Vol IV
The other day we drove through the artists’ town of Nelson, along the coast.
Charming town with its fair share of shopping venues and chic boutiques downtown.
But what we went for was the artists and the studios that dot every corner of the town.
Being in Nelson gave me the chance to blow some glass and make something out of all that shattered left-over. But I must admit, I only did the easy part and the expert in the studio did the rest of it.
I also met a famous artist Ana Leary who just so happened to be putting on an exhibit of her work right by the beach. Imagine that — an art installation curving along side the coastline at low tide.
I also met the guys who crafted the Lord of the Rings ring.
