Kereru - NZ Wood Pigeon

I love drawing.

I came to art later in life, having being told in high school not to bother as "you have no talent”.  Always creative, I put the pencils away and crafted until realising that drawing was what I most wanted. Community taught, I have gathered knowledge from many and spent hours practicing. Now I share my art with you.

I live and work on Hinewai Reserve, a 1500 hectare nature reserve on the door step of Akaroa. Find out more about Hinewai  from this short documentary: https://happenfilms.com/fools-and-dreamers

My inspiration comes from the wildlife thriving here and throughout Aotearoa.
