It was a dignified stage before the skin began to decay in a rest home. Here she wears a cloche hat, a bit like a World War II German helmet and the little pearls I gave her from my first pay cheque. Art historians will no doubt be happy to add this work to the ever growing list of painting, by artists, of their mother. In retrospect this painting bears strong resemblance to paintings by Tretchikoff of elegantly lit Asian ladies on the walls of Stella's coffee house in New Plymouth, around 1960. Then the height of fashion, they were within a decade to disappear from general view, replaced by more 'with it imagery'. Ironically, at the time of making the print of Mary Smither, I've noticed a return of Tretchikoffs to the walls of the younger generation. Rescued from second hand shops and in some cases reused as 'borrowed' images in completely new guises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Roll over Beethoven\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMichael Smither CNZM\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndependent Art Consultation Service\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf your space demands something different or unique, contact Christine Rabarts Art Curator for your independent personal in-house art consultation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eM: 027 629 7408   E: art@christinerabarts.com\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael Smither","offers":[{"title":"17 of 48 -

Our over-reliance on science and technology has taught humanity to see the world through a dreamlike state that can cause suffering. Many of Novak’s works depict people shedding tears formed from computer circuitry. The artist calls this ‘subconscious escapism’ – the loss of our collective minds. Novak challenges us to reconnect with reality by practicing mindfulness – getting out of our heads so to speak.
