This linocut is of a Tui, a boisterous and beautiful bird of Aotearoa with iridescent black, blue, green and brown feathers and striking white tuffs at its throat. Here the Tui is surrounded by the native Kōtukutuku – tree fuchsia, which is favoured by the Tui, a honey-eating bird.

For 'Tui' I have mixed  I have mixed pango/black and kahurangi/navy blue inks. The size of the linocut is 15.5cm high by 20cm wide and the size of the paper is 20cm high x 25cm wide making it easy to source a ready made frame.
About the Artist: Rebecca Davies-Cowie is a printmaker living in Otautahi, Christchurch. Her linocut artworks depict New Zealand native flora and fauna. 

Artistic Process: Beginning with a pencil drawing, each design is then transferred onto biodegradable lino and carved then inked by hand using quality Cranfield relief ink.
Rebecca then uses her etching press to print each linocut onto handmade Japanese Awagami printmaking paper. As each linocut is inked by hand, each print is slightly different. 

Delivery timeframe: Linocuts are packaged and ready to ship. If it is out of stock, you can still purchase, but please allow 5 additional days.
