Kookaburra is a recent work of Artist Gregg Hone. This work is part of the Australian Mammals series such as his work Kangaroo and the highly sort after Flying Fox. Follow Gregg’s artist journey on Instagram and Facebook.
Kookaburra is inspired by the laughing birds who would wake Gregg as a child growing up in Australia. His drawing depicts a younger bird, as seen by its shorter, yet fully formed beak and puffed, fluffy chest. Gregg’s design purposefully reflects how he see’s them almost as a magical, imaginary creature through his geometric shaping and unusual feathers.
“The Kookaburra has always held a special place in my imagination. Having lived abroad for so many years, they have almost become these mythical creature’s confused in my modern reality. Growing up I was never too far away from their laugher in the background. So normal, yet so unique. Were they watching me? Mocking me? Strangely they now frequent my dreams.”
