Among the Reeds celebrates one of New Zealand's most recognisable wetland birds, the pūkeko. Often seen quietly weaving its way through tall grasses and reeds, the pūkeko reminds us that beauty is often found in the places we pass by every day.
Built through layers of mixed media and finished in oils, the painting combines expressive textures with rich colour to capture both the energy of the bird and the peaceful rhythm of its natural habitat. The surrounding reeds create a sense of shelter and stillness, inviting the viewer to pause and appreciate the quiet moments nature offers.
Among the Reeds is a celebration of New Zealand's unique wildlife and a reminder to slow down, look a little closer, and find wonder in the everyday.
