She was also an early member of the 'Palette Club', an association of Christchurch artists founded in 1889 that was dedicated to working en plein air, in direct response to nature. Letters to her friend Rosa Dixon record her response to the landscape – and her willingness to venture out in all weathers: \"You should have seen the effect of the hills round Pigeon Bay in the storm on Saturday, the tops were white with snow, they seemed to tower up into the sky through the storm\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs well as capturing familiar scenes around Banks Peninsula (an acquaintance recalls nearly parting company with his horse when it was startled by the painter, tucked into a crevice, studying a mountain daisy), Stoddart sketched and 'botanised' throughout the Mount Cook region, often walking long distances over rough terrain despite restrictive colonial attire to search out rare plants and compelling views of the high country.

Nothing purely accidental exists in tapestry; everything used – tone, form and texture – is deliberate. An area once woven cannot be altered or worked over with the ease possible in painting. When he has an idea for a tapestry, Crook first makes a full-scale coloured cartoon. This is done very freely with no feeling of restraint and may embrace unusual techniques, such as collage. He then traces the cartoon, but only outlining the main masses of colour and not bothering about the fine subtleties of tone. This tracing is then stretched between two horizontal rollers on his loom … so that it lies flat behind the warp. Whenever the warp is turned on, the tracing can be turned on a corresponding amount. Then, following the tracing, Crook weaves the tapestry. As he does this, he is constantly consulting the [original] cartoon on the wall beside him and constantly deciding how best to interpret its painted subtleties in tapestry techniques”\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p5\"\u003eConsiderable publicity was achieved and crook’s career took off in 1978 when he was awarded a QEII Arts Council grant to provide banners for the New Zealand Chancery in Washington.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eHis practice in New Zealand also saw him change his way of working.
