two birds perched on top of each other with chains around their necks and beaks
My process for "Ngahuia" started with loose, black, ink-like washes for the body of the huia birds using a vinyl, water-based paint called flashe, and lastly came the fine detailing in black to give the huia a surreal, ornate quality. The triangle patterns that make up the branch are based on tāniko designs that are found in decorative Māori weaving used to decorate the borders of fine garments.
