NZ Herald review of 'Cocktail' exhibition

TJ McNara's 'Smell of a Painted Rag' mentions my Cocktail exhibition:

"A new and talented artist comes riding in on the clouds with her first exhibition, Cocktail, at the McPherson Gallery until October 26. Myah Flynn's paintings are filled with all the curving, tumultuous exuberance of a rococo heaven. Among the massy clouds are deft touches of feathery calligraphic curves that add grace notes to the scene. Every cloud carries an emotional charge that is conveyed by its shape and its colour. In among the clouds ride figures of a private mythology whose emotions are symbolised by the masses rolling in movement around them and strange, often winged beings that accompany them.
... Flynn won the Glaister Ennor award recently and this exhibition confirms the promise shown then. It has that special quality that comes when artists create an individual world that becomes instantly recognisable as theirs."
