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

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

In the space betwixt earth and sky

You can see many things along a ridgeline in that magic space betwixt earth and sky. Trees and bush, of course. The trig station. A posse of goats serenely picking their way across the impossible cliff-face. A stag standing statue-still and proud as he surveys his domain. A gang of kea playing a complicated game of tag along the rocks.

There’s one thing, though, that many people don’t see (or if they do, dismiss it as overactive imagination). You might know what I’m talking about—that rock that seems to flow up and swirl around something that looks suspiciously like a person. You probably weren’t sure it was an oread—it can be hazy on the horizon. Here’s a painting so you know what to look for next time you’re tramping in the mountains. Keep looking up, I’m sure you’ll spot her.

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:

Large (A2 / 594 × 420 mm / 23.4 × 16.5 inches). Edition of 1.
Small (A3 / 420 × 297 mm / 16.5 × 11.7 inches). Edition of 10.

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. 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 and into the sky.

Brush stroke detail of the brown, red ochre, and white rocks next to the smooth sky.

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.
