'View II' is a part of an ongoing series of photographs by Amy Wybrow inspired  by early botanical illustrations and photographic documentation of the natural world.

Amy explores the tropical and architectural elements of the glass houses which have been built and tempered to create an artificial and ethereal environment for exotic plant species.

One sunny February afternoon, I wandered down to Lucy Davidson's 62 Ponsonby Road studio and hung out for few hours. We talked about life, work and art of course. Lucy freely worked away on three or four paintings, while I quietly captured this easy afternoon. 

'Still Life in Bathroom' is a cheeky art print by the Japan based New Zealand artist Emile Holmewood aka Blood Bros. 

Emile vector illustrations are inspired by a wide range of things and art periods from LEGO, Japanese culture to Baroque art and American painter Norman Saunders.

This simple but impactful styled shot by the Place and Graces team picks out key colours in the art print and reinforces them in the objects and furniture to make for a contemporary styled shot.

To celebrate Pride Month in 2021 we asked artist and graphic designer Sarah Parkinson-Howe to design and paint, along with the help of Lucy Davidson, our Ponsonby Road garage door. We captured the day of painting so we could share the finished mural, along with a video of the artists in action. Happy Pride Month!
This week we invited Auckland stylist Kate Alexander of Places and Graces to share with you her immense knowledge, tips and tricks and things to remember when styling round artwork for your home.

'Aubrey Tui' is a limited edition art print by Auckland based artist Margaret Petchell. Originally a large scale painting 'Aubrey' is painted in Margaret's signature animal portrait style with intricate details, vibrant colours and a stark white background. 

Birds are a favourite subject for Margaret to paint, as she is she is captivated by their intense expressive eyes.

This monochromatic room styled by the Places and Graces team was a part of a challenge to style a series of rooms using the same blue wall.  The tones of blue and pop of natural wood gives the room a 60's era feel.

Growing up in Orewa on the Hibiscus Coast and spending much of her childhood on the family farm in Gisborne, Olivia Bezett was surrounded by nature, animals and art. The talented young artists colour pencil illustrations feature, striking native birds, fluffy bunny rabbits and cheeky woodland critters. Olivia's intricately detailed work reflect her love for animals and amazing skill can be credited to her dedication to drawing everyday and having a supportive artistic family.

'Hukanui', by Hawkes based artist Rakai Karaitiana, is a part of a series of hand-coloured photographs from his 2017 exhibition 'Rest Area' that was held at endemicworld.

'Rest Area' is a collection of images that are intended to be stopping, resting places for the viewer. A body of images that are immersive, calming and unplugged from our daily reality, each image a place to rest and reflect on what we have and our connection to nature and the land and locations we sometimes take for granted.
