Bastia Hill Tower. Oil on panel. 8x10 in. $100

This remarkable Italianate structure is a water tower that was built in Wanganui in the 1920s. As a youngster it was a wonderful days adventure to push my bike uphill to the tower, climb the tower, enjoy the view, then freewheel all the way home.
Unfortunately, the tower is closed to visitors these days, but is a very special subject in the morning sun.
