Im actually so glad to see the back of 2025 nē.

In amongst all these cool things was tough TOUGH happenings.

So many endings.
So many walking aways.

Engari for each thing that felt hard, the reason why was soon revealed and it was always GOOD.

Like when you clear an overgrown path and now you can finally see that you kept walking off the track this whole time. So no wonder you never found your way.

Apparently 2026 is going to be EPIC so lesh gooooo.

Buzzword: Limited Edition Print

HINE-ĀTĀRANGI is every piece of inner work you've ever done.

Every layer of change that has shaped you into the person you are today.

Every silent battle slowly strengthening you.

Every quiet or loud new addition of empathy.

Every test you passed and every lesson learnt.

She is all of us and yet so separately each of us.

She is carrying me over from the Year 9 snake to the Year 1 horse and will only be avaliable untill Jan 31st 2026 💙

Ya girl Aroha ordered 4x huge A2s so I thought it would be perfect time to take you with me to pack it all up 😍

Notes 👇 (please write these down)

1. I dont wear gloves to package prints. I wear clean hands and direct wairua transfer.

B. Ive decided to single handedly bring back shuffling as my love for edm re emerges in full swing. Please jump on this waka.

3. The last rule of fight club is you dont talk about fight club.

Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou for all your aroha me te tautoko 🖤🖤

Pātai: What do you do when its your besties birthday and she still has no art on the walls of her new home???

Had so much fun painting this after SIX YEARS away from the brushes. We went with all the birth flowers of her beautiful family with secret love notes embedded under the paint 🪷🌸🌺🌹

The colours were picked up from whats already in her home so that everything looks matchy but eye catching 😍

I now have to fight the urge to offer birth flower paintings as a commission.
