The idea of 'Birdsong' started a number of years ago.

Living on the edge of the Kahurangi forest I cant help but be inspired by the influence of the Tui, Korimako, Kereru, Kotuku and others who inhabit these environs. This series of work is in ways a snapshot of my flower work over a decade , with each of the charms emerging from a series of work they combine here to create a garden landscape for the birds to inhabit. I hope this reminds us of the delicate balance of our environment and how as much as we strive to shape our environment we need to be aware of the balance needed to protect the habitat of our native avian fauna.
