Omakere Birds
This commissioned work reflects the love of birds the owners see flying and resting near their home, and their love for nature. The property was once a blank paddock but every year hundreds of plants are planted and evolving into a Sanctuary for these bird friends. I have backdropped the image with the landscape of Rangitapu hill watching over the property. Rangitapu hill is enriched with M膩ori history and legend.
