The upcoming Matariki public holiday weekend brings a deeply special opportunity for our community to gather, reflect, and look to the future.
Surfing inspired my affinity with the ocean and my motivation to paint it. I first surfed in Whangamatā, and it has always been a special place for me, so its world-class waves are a pleasure to paint.
After several years of applying for various visas, I’m now happily living in New Zealand, as a legal resident, with my Kiwi partner. I had to jump through many hoops to get here, and it cost a pretty penny – well, a lot of pretty pennies – but it’s been worth It.
I was exhausted, but I couldn’t fall asleep. I tried meditating, which usually does the trick, but not this time.
Some of my earliest memories of art are tactile ones. As a child, my sister and I often stayed with our aunty and uncle.
