Projects
  • WW1
    WW1Captain Keith Logan Caldwell was one of the most noted NZ WW1 pilots. He was known for his great flying ability and much like a fantail he was able to dart quickly through the air. The fantail pilot painted below is not just representative of Caldwell but of all the New Zealand pilots and the service they provided to their country in WW1 by putting New Zealand on the map and helping to build our country an identity in the skies of Europe.
  • Window Shoppers
    Window ShoppersWindow Shoppers was a project we worked on with the Wellington City Police to create a campaign to try to promote more awareness around not leaving valuables in your car when you park in car parking buildings.
  • Phoenix
    PhoenixPhoenix was part of a University Project to create a creature who could fit into Johnny Fraser-Allen's world of The Gloaming. I was inspired by the Greek myth of the phoenix - a magical bird which when dies is reincarnated out of its own ashes. Z-brush modeling and digital painting.
