Sarah-Jane spent four years living on a boat and spent much of that time sailing around the Hauraki Gulf observing marine life along the way . The following art prints for sale are a response to the declining state of the Hauraki Gulf due to over fishing, marine pollution and climate change but also a celebration of the ocean and the wonderful creatures that inhabit it. Below also are a selection of T-Shirts also with prints currently available at @sawmillbrewing. In collaboration between Sawmill Brewing and Hi Dougs proceeds from shirts go towards marine conservation.

20% of proceeds from the sale of each print will go, through the Hauraki Gulf Conservation Trust www.haurakigulfconservation.org to the Waiheke Marine Project www.waihekemarineproject.org

The project is an initiative fully driven in partnership by mana whenua and the Waiheke community to protect and regenerate Waiheke Island’s marine environment.

The prints are an acknowledgment to Te Ao Māori as we work together to bridge the gap between Western Science and Mātauranga Māori to restore a balance within the environment and solve increasingly alarming environmental issues.
