TE MANAWARU MURAL

Pōrangahau, New Zealand

I lived about a year in this wonderful country and spent about two months in Pōrangahau. This mural was a special opportunity to learn about Māori culture firsthand. The hospitality I experienced was legendary, I was welcomed with open arms. The local school stopped by for a visit and I told them everything I know about painting, what it’s like to be an artist and how to foster creative outlets.
