Aaaaah, a relaxing morning is all one wants, but more could be afforded if your view was such, across the turquoise blues and greens of a Tahitian shore, it would truly be selfish to ask for more. What else could you want then Coffee, fruit, flowers and food ?

Not many of Rarotonga’s Tiki’s, such as these have survived into the 20th and 21st Centuries. Housed behind glass and in dark corners with in the recesses of a museum collections do they now stand! My Collage displays it within a context of colour and movement not an object of web and dust collecting.

This Collage was inspired by the writings of Celestine Hitiura Vaite’, Tahiti’s most notable literary star, who dwells in Australia. My wife & I have had the opportunity to make friends with her some years ago and have painted her portrait in the mean time. This image along with others was submitted as proposals for her (Australian release) book covers. This collage for the third book in her trilogy “TIARE’”, the other books being “Breadfruit” & “Frangipani”. / Whilst the main character in the book is indeed a girl named “TIARE’” , the grand daughter of “Matarena and Pito”, Tiare’ is also the name given to one of Tahiti’s most beautiful flowers, seen here behind the ear of Tiare’ herself (middle of the collage), Grandparents Matarena and Pito walking besides her, towards a Fare (hut) in the distance. A beautiful flower and a even more beautiful story from which this image is inspired from. /

” ‘O Savai’i ‘o le motu moni o le ōlaga faigatā o Sāmoa.” The island of Savaii is a relatively unspoilt and beautiful place, clean and inviting. This photo is of a beach fale’ ( samoan hut/house ) upon a beach on the north coast of Savaii, the largest of the Samoan islands. If you ever go there, don’t go looking for the hotels in the islands with their conveniences, go to the villages, met the people support the local economies and stay in their Fale’s, to know a place, you must meet and know its people. I can’t wait to i go back!

Bits and pieces, impressions and glimpses, emotion and leanings described through my artistic dreamings. / This collage is indicative, though only a piece of my passion.

“PENU” is the Tahitian word given to a pounder, such a pounder was used in the pounding of food, usually that of breadfruit. The “PENU” its self was made of stone (Basalt) or coral. Such implements are still used through out the islands, in the preparation of food. Some pounders held greater significance within pacific cultures. Here I have rendered this “PENU” in Oil paint on canvas. This is a painting that is part of a set of three paintings, though it can stand alone as a work within itself, separate of the others. The painting is 6”x8”inches.

We men like to think of ourselves as pretty cool. like the earth revolves on an axis of us! – not likely! – hehe! But as i look into the communities every where, i see women more so then men, being the ties that bind families, communities. That indwelt spirit of solidarity and preservation for those abouts them, the resolve to sacrifice if need be in order for those around them to not go without! This is not a diss on men, we simply need to grow up, stop being selfish and step to the plate of life, then women wouldn’t be burdened with our short comings! Wahine – Hawaiian and Maori word for women or female, immovable Wahine! Immovable Wahines!
