Sean Beldon
I am an Auckland artist best known for my large New Zealand landscape paintings. My style is mostly painterly with a modernist feel.
Over the past decade, I have been photographing and painting landscapes from the far north to the deep south.
Traveling is essential to my art. It is the inspiration and also material I need for my landscape paintings. I only paint scenes of places I have been to and take time in shooting photos that tell a story of the land.
Using the viewfinder as a primary canvas, my compositions originate in my photography of the landscape.
