All of my artwork has its foundations grounded in Maori heritage. I enjoy working with wood, especially New Zealand native timbers and I have a passion for Colour harmony and working with different colour combinations. My work is always influenced by my surrounding environment, whether in New Zealand or living overseas. I enjoy using art to connect and learn about other cultures. I see my role as an artist, also as a potential bridge builder, cultural broker and teacher.
