Artist, photographer, writer, editor. Specialising in plants, fauna, landscapes (studiobotanica.co.nz). Lifelong interest in the natural world (and no interest in manmade/urban environments whatsoever). Spent many years working in horticulture. Have compiled a photo catalogue of thousands of botanic images. Present obsession: collecting photos of as many NZ bird species as possible. Need to get offshore and find some seabirds!
