On The Horizon | Original Painting

On The Horizon is a radiant original from Kirsty Nixon’s Flora & Fauna collection, evoking the full bloom and warmth of a New Zealand summer. A panoramic sweep of lush native foliage—towering Nīkau Palms, flowering Cabbage Trees, and deep maroon Harakeke—frames the distant horizon, where ocean meets sky in a serene wash of blue.

With no birds in sight, this piece is a pure celebration of the landscape itself—rich in texture, movement, and sunlit energy. You can almost hear the hum of cicadas and feel the golden heat rising from the earth. On The Horizon captures the essence of an Aotearoa summer: expansive, alive, and full of quiet beauty. A contemplative, uplifting work that brings the outdoors in and invites you to linger a little longer.
