Homage to Napier
Napier in New Zealand in Hawkes Bay was destroyed by a powerful earthquake in 1931 followed by a fire which swept through the wooden buildings. The town was rebuilt in Art Deco style with a traditional sea front promenade complete with an outdoor theatre with a sound shell for bands. This pastel celebrates the shapes, patterns and colours seen by the artist and the courage of people who survived to create something beautiful from the ashes.
