My youngest son and I only usually drive our cars around our town so once in a while we take one of them for a blast out of town. Last week we drove to the town of Moerewa in his car, about 30 minutes away so I could take photos of the murals they have around town.
Without knowing who painted it, this mural sits on the outside of a garage door covering one of the local shops and symbolizes Cape Reinga, a mountain, kiwis, birds, waves and I think lizards. It's very reminiscent of Maori artwork.
Linking up with Mural Monday.

It's beautifully done and it certainly looks good on that door.
...a colorful find!
Bright and colourful.
I like it a lot. Wish we can go to the zoo again and maybe they have a real Kiwi? Would love to see some.
I was going to say that it was a good blend of both cultures'art.
That is cool. It must have been hard painting on a ridged door like that, they did it well.
I love Maori art! And that is one cool mural!
Happy Monday, Amy!
Nice
This is a very nice mural. :) Sharing bits and pieces of NZ. So nice to be able to go on adventure with your son. :)
A much prettier garage door with such a bright mural.

I love the mural you found.
What a great find, it's beautiful.
Absolutely fabulous way to help show NZ art. And on a garage door makes it even more special.
Wonderfully symbolic mural Amy, beautiful find 💙
