Mixed Media on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.
Signed on the front.
Surrounded by a pool of vibrant blue and green hues flowing across the surface. The background is poured first, fluid dancing across the surface and settling where it wants, then allowed to dry. Water is an important aspect of this piece, inspired by my time spent living in New Zealand, my home. An island surrounded by the sea and an important element to the Maori. The young urban Maori in this painting is displaying the moko as a spectacular display of ethnic pride and identity .
