Cold water diving brings a passion for all sorts of unusual animals, I wanted this design to feel like you're swimming through the kelp off Kaikoura. Bringing in elements of Lino Cut designs.

Established in 1985, the club wanted to highlight favourite game fish while keeping the island at the heart of the design. Each fish was individually painted with watercolour before I turned them into digital designs. 

Explore Niue is a locally run company in Niue, with community and family at their core. This piece was a collaboration with Niuean artist Iva Tanevesi. Iva’s hiapo designs represent each member of the family. Which I then intertwined with tāoga species. 

As part of their winter funding initiative, I wanted this design to represent every aspect of their organisation. Community, education, New Zealand and the cetaceans they help. 

A family run, cold water diving school. Often cold water diving is overlooked. This design captures the abundance found off the coastline of Kaikoura, from the famous local kai moana to the lesser known nudibranchs. This design has something for every diver. 

The sister operation to Explore Niue, Fish Niue targets pelagic species of the coast of Niue. Tying in Iva's hiapo design for BJ, the owner and a renowned local fishermen, his boat Manutahi as well as the favourite catch - Vahukula, yellow fin tuna. 

The sister operation to Dolphin Encounter. The aim was to create a range in a similar style, but for a different audience. As one of the best bird watching locations in the world, many travel to the area to view these amazing birds. 

Something sleek, timeless but playful. Capturing that feeling of a once-in-a-lifetime experience in a design you'd want to wear all the time. Featuring Kaikoura's iconic Seaward Ranges, the backdrop to an incredible experience with playful dusky dolphins.

Incorporating both their scenic flights over the mountains and whale watching flights heading out to the Kaikoura Canyon. Air Kaikoura's classic small plane was also a must feature in this eye catching design.
