2 3 his auction, Portrait of a New Future Zealand, has been made possible by the generosity of Tartists from the length and breadth of the country. Here we describe the works contributed by painters, potters, photographers, glassmakers, sculptors and printmakers who have a commitment to caring for this land. Many will be well known to you, while other works from South Island artists offer something different. I have heard the stories behind a number of these works, and why their creators have agreed to contribute. I would like to relate the story behind a work my family and I are also contributing for sale. It was recently painted by in memory of my husband, Sir Peter Elworthy who died in January. Peter and Ralph were both keen aviators and the call sign of Peter’s beloved Tiger Moth – ZK BLI – is boldly etched at the base of the work. The painting can also be seen as a form of flight – of the spirit. I look forward to seeing you there on November 11th. Fiona Lady Elworthy Patron, Sustainability Council
