A 2026 Calendar of artwork and short ramblings inspired by the music and scenery of Aotearoa New Zealand (mostly Ōtautahi / Christchurch). Each artwork and month pays tribute to a classic Kiwi (New Zealand) song accompanied by the scenery that inspired it, or somehow connects it.
Some of the songs I’ve listened to most of my life and others are new. Growing up in NZ, the local songs were just as everywhere as the bigger international songs. But the kiwi songs always felt more personal and seemed to linger longer. I love that the country embraced these songs and made them front and centre landmarks of the culture.
Visiting New Zealand recently again made me realise the powerful connections between music, memory and place. Music like good images or artwork is more than the careful placement of colours and sound, they are memories interwound with sights, sounds and feelings.
I hope you enjoy these pictures and check out or rediscover some of these classic songs.
Dimensions: A3 (15 Pages including cover and back).
The calendar features 13 A3 images running from January 2026 - January 2027
Delivery is $10
(This includes anywhere in Australia and New Zealand).
