New Zealand and Australia Talent Show 33

Against a deep black background, a kiwi stands proudly, playing a gleaming brass horn with bright, determined eyes. Around the bird, sheets of music swirl dramatically in the air, caught in an invisible current that seems to dance with the melody. The stark backdrop highlights the kiwi’s feathers and the instrument’s shine, giving the performance a theatrical, almost magical quality. Painterly detail adds both elegance and whimsy, making this a striking centerpiece in the Trans-Tasman talent show. This artwork is available as a matte print.
