Bill Woods, my photographer neighbour in the Kings Building Studios, photographed them and last year the negatives were sent to me by the Taranaki Museum. I used the photos to reconstruct some of the drawings as screenprints and am amused and pleased by the result (the original drawings escaped after the dance).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMichael Smither CNZM 2012.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e7 Screenprints in the Rugby Collection 2012.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e6 Variants on Black Paper:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-Bad Tackle – Edition of #25.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-Good Tackle - Edition of #25.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-The Pass – Edition of #30.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-My Ball - Edition of #25.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-The Ruck - Edition of #17.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-Try - Edition of #25.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 Variant on White Paper:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLineout - Edition of #16.\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":"6 of 25","offer_id":39302941245482,"sku":"MS13","price":200.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 of 25","offer_id":39302941278250,"sku":"11804","price":200.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2659\/6026\/products\/e1511153556b2c842967d059aa909656b7ad6e98.jpg?v=1615944031","url":"https:\/\/www.breadandbutter.co.nz\/products\/ms13","provider":"Bread \u0026 Butter Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
