“Watching TūI” – Original Artwork

The tūī is one of Aotearoa’s most iconic songbirds, known for its iridescent plumage and melodic call. In this artwork, the tūī perches lightly on a branch, painted with energetic brushstrokes and splashes of colour that capture its restless energy and vibrant presence.

Unlike the gold-leaf series, this piece celebrates the tūī in a more fluid and expressive style — letting the pigments bleed, drip, and dance across the paper, echoing the bird’s unpredictable flight and lively spirit.
