Kotuku Jugs

Since the end of 2010 I have been working on a new series of paired works, taking a lead from Buller's A History of the Birds of New Zealand. The birds are often recorded in male/female pairings in Buller's illustrations.

The first of these new forms reference the Kotuku, or White Heron. Here is one of the early pairings.
