Wow, what a great episode! I really enjoyed seeing the beautiful artwork these friends shared with you. To me it is moving that they all chose to have the sun setting in the west on their right shoulder - each one unique but unifying. I hope I get the chance to work with Rangi Kipa, my "moko" artist, once more - I don't feel complete yet. Thank you for the link love, Rox, and as the Maori say, "Aroha."
