“Fantails & Kowhai” – Original Artwork

Playful and full of life, the New Zealand pīwakawaka (fantail) flits joyfully through the branches, their tails fanning wide as they dance among the kōwhai blooms. This piece captures their movement in three moments — perched, mid-flight, and readiness to fly — set against a glowing panel of hand-applied gold leaf.

The contrast of the warm kōwhai yellow, soft brown feathers, and shimmering gold creates a lively yet elegant artwork that celebrates the spirit of these beloved birds.
