A Painting from Enclosure Bay
I made this painting during our stay at Enclosure Bay on Waiheke Island. The central figure is a pheasant who came to visit us on several occasions, also a preying mantis and a small butterfly which I couldn't identify. The large leaf is a taupata and the small ones were fallen from a pohutukawa tree which grew right by the beach.
Some flowers from the puawhanga or New Zealand clematis which was beginning to bloom in
the bush surrounding our accomodation and a piece of a low growing native shrub which is commonly used for plantings whose name I am not sure of.
