H E R A L D I K, named after my late German grandmother, I created this series over two years; opening in November 2012 at Saatchi and Saatchi Gallery, Auckland. This was me returning to my passion for large scale wild animal works; eleven life sized pieces, each representing my family members were carved out of litres of paint and tonnes of love. With an additional three large supporting drawings that were made into prints.
