New Zealand Memories: A Painterly Journey Through Aotearoa, the Land of the Long White Cloud

This art book takes you on a New Zealand journey of a different kind - through the eyes of an artist. The book shows you a very individual view of this wonderful country with its impressive nature in the form of sketches and paintings, enriched with various anecdotes. Join the artist on a voyage of discovery through the beauty of New Zealand! From north to south, over mountains and to the Pacific, past lava flows and primeval forests, into the Shire and quite close to the South Pole. "New Zealand Memories" makes a great gift or coffee table book, especially for those who have been there and still dream of their experiences and the vibrant colours of Aotearoa - to enjoy when you have wanderlust or for inspiration.
In winter 2017/2018, Katja Schmitt fulfilled a lifelong dream and spent a month in New Zealand. The artist recorded her travel impressions on site in sketches and photographs and then processed her experiences at home in the studio with pastels in landscape paintings and in abstract watercolours. The book contains numerous excerpts from the sketchbooks and all the paintings completed so far.
