Painting description

Trees against a backdrop of cloud that swath Mount Taranaki.

Artist statement

As the place where I was married Taranaki is special to me. It is common for the peak to be shrouded in cloud as if was on our day. But while the photographer took his photos the cloud shifted and then as we left it hid the peak once more. The next day we walked up the flank of the mountain amoungst the trees with their trailing moss. It is a quiet and magical place.
