Swinging gracefully from a lichened branch, a tūī eyes you up, poi hanging from its neck like a punctuation mark. The perfect partner for "Resolute Beauty (tūī)." This special duo comes in sizes to suit every wall and budget.
These gorgeous prints are on heavyweight matte fine art paper. Each print is hand-signed and editioned. Sizes refer to the printed region; paper prints have an additional white margin.

I donate 10% of my proceeds for this print to Forest & Bird to support their conservation efforts.
Larger prints are rolled in acid-free tissue or glassine and sent in mailing tubes. Smaller prints are sent flat with conservation-grade backing boards and slips. Extra-large metal prints are shipped in a custom-built crate.
Did you know that tūī are also referred to as tui (without the macrons), parson bird, and Prosthemadera novaeseelandiae? They are beloved garden and forest birds, with a fascinating and complex song. Although uncommon in many areas of Aotearoa New Zealand, they are making a comeback in areas with good predator control, such as in Wellington. From only around twenty breeding pairs about 25 years ago, tūī are now ubiquitous in Wellington gardens - how amazing is that!
