Nō Rotorua ahau

Ko Vendela tōku ingoa

I am a Rotorua based Māori artist, I have been painting professionally for 12 years. The rediscovery of my Māori heritage was fundamental to the beginning of my journey as an artist. Learning of my culture, my whakapapa links and my history created the inspiration to many of my paintings. I have an intrinsic affinity for Māoritanga and a personal passion for Mana Wāhine, it has always been a priority for me to express my culture though my paintings, for years to come I will continue to play my part in keeping my culture alive and strong, through the expression of art.
