Ko Mahuhu ki te rangi te waka
Ko Te Wairoa te awa
Ko Tokatoka te maunga
Ko Ngati Whatua te iwi
Ko Te Houhanga te marae
Ko Josie Selkirk toku ingoa.
I am a wāhine māori artist that specialises in digital media, watercolour, gouache and acrylics. My style has expanded and varies each year, ranging from native manu to psychedelic fairy worlds to now creating with a Te Ao Māori approach.
I have just graduted with a Bachelor of Māori Art specialising in Rauangi (painting.) This has made a big impact on my creative style and process, as I take inspiration from Māori purakau and atua wāhine.
