Craig Platt
New Zealand Wildlife and Bird painter
 |
Auckland illustrator Craig Platt has had a lifelong fascination with New Zealand birdlife. His acutely realistic studies of New Zealand birds comes from frequent observations in natural and man-made environments. Craig trained as a graphic artist and has built a very sucessful career using his hand-produced illustrative talents on a wide variety of commercial projects - most recently in the corporate calender field. This exhibition represents several years worth of study from a range of scenic locations around Auckland and Northland. Craigs work is collected by national and international followers of his style. Update! Craig has recently completed a commission for New Zealand Post's Bird and Game 2010 issue. His painting of Mallard Ducks was chosen for a first day issue of Game Bird Habitat. |
