Artist Statement:
My goal in painting is to
create images that are
humourous and/or interesting
or else beautiful and a
pleasure to behold. I like to
tell stories with my cartoon
images. You can see more art
on my website www.maxey.co.nz


I think that there is high
value in art that clearly
communicates something useful
to the viewer and that, if it
is necessary to read an
explanation of an artwork in
order to understand it, then
it has largely failed.

I have always been very
interested and involved in
art. My parents are both
artistic and musical, and this
inspired me to paint and draw
from a very early age. Even
while at university studying
geography, I spent much of my
spare time drawing, and
deriving supplementary income
from artistic endeavours. I
have a very wide range of
experiences and knowledge to
draw from, and want to
incorporate these into my art
to produce work that interests
and excites both the audience
and myself.

My goals are to secure
exhibitions in public
Galleries, and to exhibit
outside New Zealand. Late in
2008, I travel to the Grand
Canyon to kayak the Colorado
River and to take photographs
