20 NZ Cents PUKAKI Oil Painting R Hammond 6/10

PLEASE NOTE;
THE 10 CENT IS NOW SOLD, SORRY ABOUT THAT !


Others may be for sale via trademe depending on how this auction goes.

Thanks for looking !


" 20 NZ Cents " is the 6th painting in this first set of 10 coin paintings.

The Kiwi was featured on our 20c until the Kiwi Dollar came in and a second 20c was circulated with a Pukaki on it.
Sometimes seen as a TIKI, This is no generic image.
Rather it is a reproduction of a specific carving of an 18th century Maori warrior leader called Pukaki, who was a Rangatira (Chief) of the Ngati Whakaue iwi of Te Arawa in the Rotorua district.
The carving was made in 1836 and today it can be viewed in the entrance of the Rotorua District Council.


My goal is to complete a full 28 series of sets of 10 coins (280 paintings)


Medium - Oil Paint, Black background is thick impasto style.
Canvas - 12" x 12" stretched exhibition canvas (1 1/2" deep)


Ready to Hang.

For part of my " Doubling Challenge " (google this !) I have decided to rekindle my interest in painting.
After studying a BA of Graphic Design in Australia, I have had a rest from art for the last 8 years.
Now I'm Back !

The first set of 10 paintings will be all New Zealand Coins.

These coins are all handpainted in oils and interpreted from the original thing by myself.

You may follow these paintings at my Trademe Friendly Blog !

Buy Now includes postage.

Great for the numismatist, entreprenuer or just someone who wants the first of my paintings in what will be quite a series :D

Very motivating to wake up to and a reminder of something that most of us overlook

Would work in a business, cafe or as an investment !
I'll work to create a second market for these and there is only 10 in each country set.

Questions and answers

Although questions about commisions have been tempting... My aim is to create a second market for these (I'll be doing 280 coins in total) so I think it is fair that I only do one of each :) If you want to keep an eye on what I'm doing, there is an e-mail feed subscription on my blog which will only send you updates to the blog :) Thanks for looking, It's nice to know people have seen them !!
