Rural artist Graham Christensen's Ashhurst studio is open to the public this weekend (12 and 13 October) as part of the Art Trail Manawatu.

Having spent much of his life farming in and around the region, Graham’s paintings capture rural life and moments in time that make up the rich tapestry of our farming community.

He lives on a farm on Glenburn Road and paints from a large, light-filled studio – a converted room at the back of the barn.

You can visit Graham as part of the Art Trail, or drop in to his open studio independently this Saturday and Sunday only from 10am – 4pm.

Address: 84 Glenburn Road (turn off Napier Rd, opposite Greenhaugh Gardens). There is good access (no need for gumboots!) and plenty of parking. For more info - and a handy map, see www.grahamchristensen.co.nz...
