Tony Harrington

 

New Zealand artist Tony Harrington was born and raised in the East Coast town of Napier. Much of his art works encapsulate the essence of a fulfilling, sunny, Hawke's Bay lifestyle. Tony crafts distinctive, graphic artworks, influenced by his environment, family, time spent travelling, people, places and experiences encountered along the way.

Utilising recycled timber, graphic design methodologies and elegant brush work, his creations exude a sense of both nostalgia and current day references to the fabric which weaves together the cultural landscape of Aotearoa. 

This series of works titled 'Freebirds' are one off originals, each described as a collection of thoughts about where we have been and the possibilities of where we can go.
