Stephen Howard encases the New Zealand landscape in a delicately dreamlike atmosphere. After stripping the landscape of all but its basic shapes, Howard's art captures the spirit of a place, leaving a lasting emotional impression upon the viewer.
Howard seldom depicts a single place. He takes buildings out of their original context and re-imagines them in a way which questions reality, rather than reflecting it, lending a delicately surreal air to his work.
His handling of light is particularly distinctive in its clarity, showing the result of the many hours that Howard spends on each composition.
Howard has been exhibiting in solo and group exhibitions in Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland since 1978.
