Winter on the Waimakariri, a painting of Arthur's Pass, NZ by Peter Geen (acrylic)

Winter on the Waimakariri

In August 2006, we drove from the West Coast of the South Island through the very icy and picturesque Arthur’s Pass en route to Christchurch. We spent a memorable few days at the Bealey River, where I photographed and sketched some of the most dramatic scenery I have seen in NZ. This is an early evening view of the Waimakariri River flanked by towering peaks of the Southern Alps.
