A yearning to come home to Auckland, and an understanding husband, has enabled me to open my studio/gallery – Gallery 61. I paint in oils, the depth and richness highlighting the beauty of Aotearoa. My varied work is held in collections throughout New Zealand and overseas. 18 months ago I opened my studio/gallery to a small group of local artists. I hope to include the talented work of this little group in my gallery during this year’s art trail. I am also an author and illustrator of children’s books. My books are in English and Te Reo and I will be signing them in my gallery.

The gallery has one of a kind art and metal sculptures made from repurposed materials. All pieces are made with a variety of weird and wonderful objects. My creations started life as household items like kitchen utensils or everyday objects we tend to throw away. My sculptures have been crafted into interesting forms that would look good in any home.
Riverhaven Artland is being built out of love. When Guy Blundell’s wife Sue died over 20 years ago he started planting trees with a view of creating an arboretum. Inspired by English Landscape Architect Capability Brown he planted thousands of ornamental trees and now many years later Riverhaven looks like a park.
Along the way he fell in love with Sculpture and a new seed was planted. He decided he would make Riverhaven a Sculpture Park, to share his love of the land and Art with others. Together with his daughter Katie (Katie Blundell Artist) they are making his dream a reality.
We offer group guided tours and seasonal events.
See website for visiting details.
