Limited Edition Giclee Print - Height 40cm x Width 70cm “Lottin Point sits atop East Cape where the land turns from an easterly facing orientation to follow a westward path all the way to Opotiki. I have had the good fortune to holiday here and to experience its unique character. Although farmed, it retains bush and a coastal fringe of magnificent Pohutukawas, here depicted in the full bloom of an early summer – framing the westward view down to Cape Runaway.” – Tony Ogle

Artist Bio
Tony Ogle was born in Auckland in 1959. After completing the AIT Graphic Design Diploma Course in 1979, he spent time in Northland working with artist Tom Burnett, producing silk screen prints that celebrated the coastal scenery of Northland. Also well known at this time was a series of screen prints inspired by the east coast of Great Barrier Island.
After spending several years travelling the world, Tony re-established himself in Auckland, and in the early 90's produced a series of work depicting the Coromandel Peninsula. Here he discovered a wealth of subject matter which over an eighteen month period he condensed into an exhibition of paintings and prints.
Ogle continues to be drawn to locations off the beaten track,mostly untouched niches of the land and coastline that convey a quality of timelessness to him. To encapsulate that 'sense of place' is what he strives for in his work. Having now traveled he feels even more sharply aware of the uniqueness of what naturally exists in his home country.
