New Zealand born Avis Higgs is an award winning painter and one of Australasia’s most innovative textile designers of the 1940s.
Nearly 70 years after it was designed, Avis Higgs' 'Heart of the Bush' has been printed onto fabric.
It has been printed as a short run on a trial basis. Chairs have been covered by Living Room (www.livingroom.co.nz) and look fantastic.
We will update as to future availability. Watch this space for further details.
We think this is one of the earliest, if not the earliest surfing fabric designed, this design shows surfers in different positions on red and yellow surfboards amongst the waves. The word "Whacko" is written on the design.
