What is true for one relationship, for one painting, is not true for another... each possesses its own strange inevitability that resists us and we can never finally know what it is we are doing until the work is finished... It is as if the picture paints itself through us, the story tells itself through us, has a larger existence of which we know nothing. -Alex Miller

When we took the company over it was a remnant in a way, compared to the major company. With two South Island owners, its really back to the beginnings in a way.
