Artwork Description

Museum quality archival pigment art print on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

'Mataka' has been released as a limited edition 1 - 35. 'Mataka' meaning morning in Fijian, is a depiction of my childhood in Fiji, where I spent joyful days sheltering under the sun-drenched palm trees. This period holds a special place in my heart, and it's so vivid in my memory that I can draw a palm tree from it without hesitation.

The photographic printed background newsprint is made up of positive words, please look at the detailed photos to see this. I wanted to create the feeling of flight and movement to spread positivity and joy rather than what we seem to get in the news.

Artist Bio

George is a multi-media artist based in Sydney Australia, with paintings and mixed-media works represented in private and public collections globally.

Trained in formal figurative practices and techniques, honed over three decades in international textile and fashion design, George now paints seven days a week, loves turning mistakes into ideas, and is equally adept observing formal rules and breaking them for a reason.

His work is energetic, calming and whimsical, and reflects the semi-tropical colours of his native New Zealand, a Fijian childhood and the dazzling colours of Australian nature and urban life. He incorporates layers in mixed media, acrylics, collage and glazes, applied with brushes, sponges and rough-textured towels and sometimes dyeing natural canvas first to create background and depth.

George’s art is fluid and uplifting, with signature collections including The Funk, Freehand, Optimist Heart, Silent Paradise, News, and the Gradual series.
