Digital artwork of a figure, possibly a mountain oread, standing on the top of a bank of jagged rocks. Her long dress is melded in the rock and she holds a white veil that billows in the wind about her.

Framed artwork hanging on a wall. The digital artwork is of a figure, possibly a mountain oread, standing on the top of a bank of jagged rocks. Her long dress is melded in the rock and she holds a white veil that billows in the wind about her.

Emerging from the rocks and rising up to join the breeze

There’s nothing quite like jagged masses of rock to make you feel like you’re in another world. The sharp hardness digs into the soles of your feet and scrapes the palms of your hands—because navigating this crag is no civilised stroll in the park. Each foot placement threatens a rolled ankle or scraped knee. Goats would be at home here, but humans? Not so much. Except for the oread, the mountain nymph. But then, I suppose she’s not really human. She’s emerging from the rocks like a butterfly from its chrysalis. Stone turns to silk-like veils that swirl around her, rising up to join the breeze. This is her world—and, fortunately for you, it seems she’s amenable to sharing.

Limited edition fine art prints

Giclée printed on 100% cotton rag fine art paper and hand-signed and numbered by the artist. This artwork comes in 2 sizes:

At the large A2 size, only 1 of this artwork will be created. At the small A3 size, only 10 of this artwork will be created. Once the edition is complete, it will be retired forever.

I print artworks to order. Processing time depends on how busy my local printing house is—it usually takes 2 weeks for an unframed print.

Framed artworks hanging in an interior next to a pot plant. There are white wooden floorboards, a comfy white couch with cushions and two artworks on the wall. They're both of a figure, possibly a mountain oread, standing on the top of a bank of jagged rocks. Her long dress is melded in the rock and she holds a white veil that billows in the wind about her.

Brush stroke detail of the rocks. Browns, red ochres, and whites swirl together.

Framing

The large A2 size is framed and arrives ready to hang on the wall. I hand-picked this timeless frame for this collection. Those splashes of red ochre beautifully match the colours of our wild New Zealand landscapes.

The small A3 size comes unframed so you can choose the framing to accent your own décor.

(Please note that I don’t ship framed artworks overseas due to the glass.)

Shipping

Within New Zealand, I offer free shipping for the small A3, unframed prints in this collection. Otherwise—for framed, or shipping overseas—shipping prices will vary. Get in touch, let me know what exotic location you’re at and I’ll get you an estimate. Read the shipping policy here for more information.

As limited edition artworks are printed to order and hand-signed and numbered, all sales are final—so please choose carefully! Read the return policy here.
