Native forests of New Zealand Print

I’m a New Zealand artist with a deep appreciation for the cultural and natural beauty of Aotearoa. My connection to art began in childhood and has grown over the years, shaped by my heritage, life experiences, and the people around me. Much of my work is inspired by New Zealand’s stunning landscapes and unique wildlife. Each painting or sketch is an opportunity to reflect the stories and places that have left an impression on me. I do my best to bring these moments to life with care and creativity, always learning and growing as an artist. In 2022, a new chapter began as my wife and I started a project together under the name Koru Kiwi Arts, focusing on themes close to our hearts, New Zealand’s environment and cultural heritage. This ongoing collaboration allows us to combine our creative strengths and tell meaningful stories through art. I now describe my approach as that of a visual expressionist artist of New Zealand culture, a term that reflects the way I interpret and share the landscapes, wildlife, and identity of Aotearoa through painting and illustration.
