Vicki Jones- Harakeke on Harakeke

$400

Phormium tenax

A Pakohe Whanganui papermaking workshop prompted me to giclée print an image of one of my coloured pencil drawings of harakeke (New Zealand flax, Phormium tenax) onto the handmade harakeke paper to produce this piece.

After earlier experimenting with watercolours I have come to appreciate the level of detail that coloured pencils allow and I love the vibrant colours and the range of textures that can be represented with them. They are, for me, the perfect medium with which to interpret the intricate details of nature.

Based in Ngahinapouri, Waikato, I particularly enjoy nature walks where I can take time to observe flowers and foliage in detail. These walks offer an abundance of inspiration and subject material for my representations of nature.
