'Step into Softness' - An introduction to bokeh art
A set of 4 unframed bokeh art prints
'Step into softness' with this gentle collection of four bokeh art prints: a perfect introduction to Mel McKenzie’s signature style.
Each print captures the calm, light-filled essence of Mel’s original oil paintings, created in The Penny Drops' studio on New Zealand’s South Island. These works are an invitation to pause, to soften, and to see the world a little differently.
Why bokeh?
Bokeh is a softer way of seeing the world. It's a form of surrender, blurring away the nitty-gritty in front of us as we take the focus off the hard edges of life.
Originally a term found in photography, Mel manually unfocuses the camera as she takes her reference photos for these paintings and delights in watching the light grown in the camera as she does so.
