Canvas Works

An ongoing body of work exploring portraiture, cultural identity, and spiritual depth. Each canvas is painted on a ground of brewed coffee, warmth, age, and ritual present before a mark is made.

About the Medium

Coffee Stain Canvas

Coffee has always been a place of gathering, of conversation, ritual, and presence. Using brewed coffee as a foundational pigment introduces that history into the surface itself. The canvas develops a warmth and age before the first stroke of acrylic. What emerges is not just painted, it is stained, settled, and held.

Votive Works

Not for Sale

These pieces were made in devotion, as tribute, as acknowledgement, as friendship given form. They exist beyond exchange.

Te Mana Wahine

This work reflects a presence shaped through strength, grounding, and care, a recognition of the land, the space, and the people that hold it.

For Liam

This work was created in honour of a life that continues beyond presence, and the strength of a mother who carries that love forward.

Abeat Lost

This work is a personal gesture, a reflection of friendship, trust, and the kind of presence that quietly shapes a life.
