Bill Hammond


William Hammond is a New Zealand artist.
Hammond attended the School of Fine Arts at the University of Canterbury from 1966 to 1969, and has worked as a full-time painter since 1981. His paintings feature two common themes: references to popular music and gaunt creatures with avian heads and human limbs.
His best known work is probably the painting "Waiting for Buller", which refers to the ornithologist Walter Lawry Buller.
Hammond lives and works in Lyttelton, New Zealand.
