The Fantail (Pīwakawaka)

(210mm H x 390mm W) SOLD

Full of movement and life, this wider format piece captures the playful energy of the Pīwakawaka. I finely sanded the face of the wood to allow the intricate detail of the bird to shine against the raw, untouched edges of the timber.

This painting has sold, however I also welcome the opportunity to discuss site-specific commissions with you. Whether you wish to feature the specific fauna of your region or a large-scale landscape on linen that tells the story of your unique locality, I can tailor a work to align perfectly with your lodge's aesthetic and heritage.

To me, these works are more than art; they are pieces of New Zealand’s geological and cultural history, forged through hard work and my deep love for this land.
