My approach to floral and still life photography is eclectic. I like to use flowers and organic material from my own garden, the surrounding native bush and the rural landscape. I am trying to capture the magic which is often impossible to capture in a single image. Photoshop is my box of crayons, and my artwork is starting to move into the realm of fantasy. I love to see how far I can push the floral and still life concepts, and compete with Mother Nature.

Many of my still life botanical images are redolent of the Dutch painters, especially their colourful work known as Dutch/Flemish florals and still lifes. 

​

Farm animals also feature regularly. Any animal that catches my eye while I'm driving around is fair game, but many are also my own animals. Working with multi-layered images and found objects I like to create imaginative artwork which is totally original and unique. 

​

To frame or not to frame:  All of these images look equally stunning framed or printed on canvas, and it is only a matter of personal preference. All canvas prints have been printed and framed in NZ, and are of a high standard.  All these images are available as a print or printed on canvas, but obviously I cannot carry every picture in stock in all size options. If it says "out of stock" this means I need to arrange for printing - which is only 10 days away.

Limited Editions

I don't want to buy a piece of artwork and find it repeated adnauseum in other places. Most of these artworks are limited editions. Some are limited to one only, and others may be a few more, but all are unique and only ever printed in very small numbers.  Once the number has been reached, the piece will be deleted from my website, so if you see something you like, don't hesitate, as it might be gone the next time you look.

Wander through my website, I'm sure you will find something you will love.
