This 100% unbleached cotton tea towel features Melina Martin's beautiful artwork, which has been hand screen-printed with water based textile ink and heatset to withstand lots of washing.
The native Kererū is a large, distinctively-coloured pigeon with iridescent green and bronze feathers on its head and a smart white vest. They are familiar sight to many people throughout New Zealand as they are widespread across the country in both forests and urban habitats. The noisy beat of their wings is a distinctive sound and they will often ascend slowly before making impressively steep parabolic dives. Tī kōuka is the Māori name for the New Zealand native cabbage tree. It is one of the most distinctive trees in the New Zealand landscape, especially on farms. They grow all over the country, but prefer wet, open areas like swamps.
Every piece of Melina's work is hand screen painted by her and is created from her own original artwork. Her artwork depicts New Zealand's native birds, flora and fauna, as they have such an understated beauty.
Melina uses only water based textile inks, natural fabrics and recycled paper to minimizing environmental impact.
Size: 75 x 50 cm
Material: 100% Cotton
