To brush, straighten, comb or…..honeycomb? ‘Beehive,’ the second in a series of works in which hairdos become habitats for homeless creatures, literally transforms that iconic 60s hairstyle into a buzzing hive of industry.

Using a combination of acrylic, pencil and spraypaint on wallpaper and board, the original work from which this print is taken is part drawing, part painting, an illustration-based image with an emphasis on patterning and detail.

Honeycomb rollers are piled high on the head of our unconventional beekeeper, and a palette of muted yellows and browns offer a subtle camouflage for the insects who tenant this tightly curled colony.

All my works are printed on Epson Watercolour art paper using archival quality inks - and of course the watermark you see onscreen does not appear on the print itself.

Your print will be unframed, packaged in a cardboard mailing tube and sent via Fastway Couriers, which takes 1-3 days for delivery. I'll mail the package within 3 working days of your payment clearing.

If you'd like to purchase more than one print at a time, not only will you make me extra happy, but you won't pay any extra shipping costs - it's all free within New Zealand. Woop woop!
