Original artwork of a South Island Tomtit & Native Buttercups by Sarah Potton.

Painted with professional artist's acrylic on museum quality 300gsm watercolour paper. Comes unframed, and includes a certificate of authenticity.



ABOUT THE PAINTING
I think Tomtits would have to be one of most adorable native birds, with their fat little chests and striking colouring.  This painting is of the South Island male which is distinguished from that of the North Island species by the beautiful yellow colouring on the breast. 

The flowers are tiny native buttercups (Ranunculus Multiscapus) which are found in the higher altitude and tussock-land areas of New Zealand.

Art prints of this painting are available to purchase.
