Health issues relating to the need to be away from noise led Bev and Glenn to ‘Puketotara’ on Oneriri Road, a few kilometres west of Kaiwaka. The house had been built in the early 1930s for Forrie and Lil Linnell. Apparently, a 50-cent deposit lodged with land agent Roy Corker secured the purchase! Bev loved birds, particularly ‘chooks’ and this led to his artistic specialty of painting them, in every shape, size, and disposition, with considerable skill and subsequently to an appreciative market. He (and family) built a gallery at Puketotara, where he exhibited an increasingly wide range of his artistic output. He loved living in the country, and in particular enjoyed the Kaipara landscape. His love of place was sensitively captured in his art. Many folk requested commissions to preserve special memories. Bev was generous with his time, and conducted workshops to encourage other amateur artists. He was often asked to speak to various groups. A special character, Bev possessed a marvellous sense of humour with a brilliant sense of timing when telling a joke or story. Over the years, without any formal art training, Bev’s artistic gifts became increasingly recognised and led to his paintings being exhibited widely, including highly regarded international venues. Bev was never pretentious and entirely lacked any sense of hubris. He appreciated the beauty in his environment and articulated it feelingly in his form of art expression. He was a generous, warm, and compassionate individual who considerably enriched this community. Goodbye Bev - true friend.
