says it is rare
to have two of the highly sought
after scholarships awarded to
students from the same school.

The scholarship supports
university study and includes
financial aid, a paid summer
internship, a graduate job
opportunity and a mentor.
Tulsi, who lives in Cashmere,
has also been awarded a

Two years since Clare’s last Little River gallery show,
and much has changed in her life; she has moved south
to Blueskin Bay and fashioned a new existence after the
death of her life partner and fellow artist, Max Podstolski.
Last September Clare travelled to Spain to walk part of
the Camino, raising money for Leukaemia and Blood
Cancer New Zealand, as a way of giving something to
help others coping with a terminally ill loved one and a
way of self-healing.
It was an Main outward Rd, and Little inward River journey | 03 325 for Clare. 1944This time

allowed her to explore whether she
could find a sense of joy again in her work and her life,
and she was able to choose to keep on painting. The
resilience of the human spirit to endure parting and grief,
for Clare, came from the power and beauty of the natural
environment around her.
These works explore Clare’s journey back into painting
and finding a sense of renewal and a path forward that is
not merely surviving but thriving.
The Last Plum Gone Sing Me the Path Forward
“Uplift my singing heart,
as once it was torn asunder.
The wound, now papered over, is not forgotten,
but pulsing with a tenderness for a further chance of life.
With every beat it grows a little stronger, a little lighter.
The cycle of returning to old places, empty now without you,
gives me a knowing that each movement forward,
when facing the storm of solitude,
is a healing.
The call of the light reveals an illuminating path.
Not merely to survive but truly thrive.
Now dance me into a fresh dawn
of hope and possibilities on
these Journeys of the Heart.
I’m over the moon to be alive.”
Little River Gallery open 7 days, Main Road, Akaroa Highway.
