Just because I’m too impatient to wait until the completion and because you never know what can happen on the way, I want to share with you the piece I’m working on…
I plan to hang up the piece on the wall, in front of the entrance door, as a welcome message.
In case you are wondering, the final piece will read Kia Ora with each letter decorated with Maori-inspired patterns.
To be continued…
Pretty blossoms are everywhere now !
Enough to be in good mood and have inspiration with all these colours popping around.
So no surprise my paper cuts celebrate the return of Spring !
I also played around the idea of letters.
That could fit in a child bedroom…
And to train my hand at more intricate cut, I used this paper with original design from Cristina Re.
Papercut seems to be my new hobby, so don’t be surprise to see some more in the near future…
After a walk on a steep path under a green canopy, we reach the skyline walkway.
We leave behind us the lush of the bush for green pastures and the scent of gorse flowers.
The path was already known to Māori as Te Wharangi [broad open space] and used as a communication route.
The walk is easy and on a clear blue day like last Saturday, you can enjoy a nice panorama: On the East side, Wellington and the ultramarine water of its harbour; on the West side the Tasman sea and the outline of the Marlborough sounds; and in the South direction Kaikoura ranges.
Very pleasant walk and now that I know gorse flowers are edible, I’m looking forward to going back there to pick up some…
