In this episode we head to Mount Maunganui, Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, to visit Rob McGregor. Rob is a full-time New Zealand Artist. Strong vibrant colours reflect the sunny holiday atmosphere of Mount Maunganui, on the North Island coast where he lives with his wife. It is one of the country’s most popular beaches and holiday destinations. Having traveled widely Rob’s works depict aspects of life in France, Greek Islands, Bangkok’s Rambutri and Khao San Road. Landscapes, nudes, coastal and beach scenes, the well-known series that include Volkswagen ‘Beetles’, Kombi, Holden, Minis and Morris Minors; NZ’s Pukekos, Cabbage Trees, Flaxes and Pohutukawa; down-under barbeques, café scenes, jazz, dance or abstract pieces, tractors and dinghies on the beach, his barbed-wire series of paintings are all subjects of Rob’s attention.
