Paintings of distant horizons by Christianna Cassisa
In 2011, artist Christianna Cassisa, created a series of paintings called The Place. In Cassisa’s words: ‘The Place exists inside and outside of each of us, meeting at the point of our inspired expressions’. Each painting is of a distant horizon.

Expeditions Without a Parachute: new series by Scott Cousins
Expeditions Without a Parachute is the next chapter in my art work.

Having originally sprung from the Shaky Isles (otherwise known as New Zealand), I can appreciate the humour in the New Zealand cartoon series, Bro Town, the first homegrown animated series to screen during local prime time.
