Dawn to Dusk

Inspired by the stirring natural beauty of Aotearoa's magnificent landscapes, Rusk's paintings and lithographs are an expansive and emotionally expressive illustration of her strong connection with the land.

Feeling personally connected to her work is a vital aspect of her creative process, so she always visits and photographs a scene and then carefully transforms it into an original painting or lithograph. Since moving out to the seaside town of Muriwai, she continues to be inspired by the untamed power and beauty of the region.
