Whanaungatanga - Family

This is a sculpture I made for a friend of mine to give to her midwife as a sign of gratitude and appreciation for her going above and beyond in helping with the birth of their first child.

 This is the first koru I have made and the combination of stone on wood was new too.  It was great to be challenged by her ideas in what she wanted.

Long Deep Green Pounamu Toki

This is a piece I designed based on a pre European toki that was used for carving.  I love the old shapes and simple elegance they have.

It is now with a good friend of mine in Germany.  An important piece of New Zealand he can carry with him now.
