This picture is called Kapa Haka Nut Cracker - As the Nutcracker drinks the beer he morphs into a 'Tiki' figure. The inspiration from this piece comes from Dick Frizzel's 'Mickey to Tiki Tu Meke'. |
In this painting I have combined traditional Maori 'Moko' tattoo with a traditional German Nutcracker. My idea is to combine to icons and ideas from the Country I am from and the country I live in. |
Love the German/NZ theme Dave! Comes across really well. Both look really good.
