Please note that due to the 3d nature of this work, shadow box framing will be necessary.

Step into a world of botanical art where time blooms, wings flutter, and the line between reality and imagination blurs. These new 3D assemblage artworks weave together repetitive motifs—clocks, flowers, foliage, insects, and curious creatures—both real and invented. Layer upon layer, they form intricate, whimsical scenes that invite the eye to wander and the mind to wonder.

Each mixed media piece is a miniature surreal nature realm, alive with patterns and textures, where familiar forms transform into something unexpected. Here, time keeps ticking, but always in its own peculiar rhythm.

"GLOSSARY"

These works begin with a single thought: words matter. They carry beauty, nuance, and music—and yet, I so often let them slip by, unused or uncelebrated. This realisation has set me on a gentle quest: to gather words of rare loveliness and give them a second life in colour, shape, and line.

Each artwork begins with the word itself, written in curling script, mirrored and reversed until it becomes something new—an almost insect-like form, delicate and strange, emerging from the symmetry. In this way, language transforms into image, and image becomes a kind of visual poem.

I call this collection Glossary—a compendium not just of words, but of the feelings they awaken.

Please note : These works are held in my New Zealand studio and are available as prints only with gold ink/metallic paint embellishments only.
