'That Wanaka Feeling'

Original round bokeh oil painting

The setting sun peeps through autumn leaves of trees on the edge of Lake Wanaka.

Warm, dreamy & magical - this original oil painting features an iconic Wanaka scene on a round canvas, set within a custom-made white powder coated metal frame.

This painting continues a body of work by New Zealand bokeh artist Mel McKenzie. Exploring southern vistas through her distinct blurry lens. The 'blurry light'/bokeh evokes a sense of wistful nostalgia. The soft focus gives the painting an air of abstraction and conveys a message of the ways light finds its way through to you, and the beauty of taking the focus off 'sharp edges' and 'gritty details'.
