Flyingbird Arts Limited is an artist's business at 29B Fruitvale Rd in New Lynn, west Auckland. It has a 5.0 rating on Google and a website.
A good working artist makes original work with care and is happy to talk about how it was made, what inspired it and how to look after it. When buying directly from an artist, ask about the medium, whether the work is an original or a print, whether it is signed and dated and how it should be framed, hung and kept out of direct sun. Many artists also take commissions, which start with a conversation about size, colours and subject, so ask how the process works, what is paid up front and how long it will take. Regulars know that visiting a studio or checking the website shows the range of work, that buying direct often gives a fairer price for both sides and that asking about shipping is wise for larger pieces. Check whether studio visits are by appointment.
For anyone in New Lynn and west Auckland, Flyingbird Arts on Fruitvale Road is a place to look at and buy original art.
