Lots of new work to share 😀

I have been trying some different mdf shapes with the dragonfly and Mangōpare (hammerhead) designs.

* yellow canvas with Mangōpare design uses Christmas stamps with the whale's of Kaikōura and the champagne pools of Rotorua with a gloss varnish
20cmx40cm $140

* salmon canvas with Mangōpare design uses 4 colours with 4 NZ Birds:
Orange = Kereru/Wood Pigeon
Blue = Kotare/Sacred kingfisher
Salmon = Tete/Grey Teal
Purple = Kotuku/White Heron
20cmx30cm $140

* blue canvas with two Dragonflies uses two different roses stamps, two different stones (Agate & Nephrite) with 3 NZ Birds (rock wren, blue duck and kakapo)
20cmx20cm $70

** Mangōpare design is a symbol of strength, courage and power **

Decisions, decisions, decisions 🤔l

New kiwi cut outs...but the dilemma should I make them into Kiwi magnets or Kiwi coasters 🤔

What do you think?- magnets are 5cm, coasters are 10cms

New cut outs = new work in process!! 💖

At this stage it is all about painting both sides of the mdf black before I begin deciding on which stamps I will use and then whether I will display on canvas boards or not 🤔

Watch this space as I begin to share my new work

** any of my stamp artwork can be custom-made **
