i think people who complain about the language police are, by and large, just cowards. say whatever you want! no one is going to stop you. but people may judge you or even, if you say the wrong thing in front of the wrong person, pop you in the mouth. but that’s life!

Ruins. This is a technique I developed back in the pre-digital days for quick results with concept sketching. It's gouache and prismacolor pencil on gray toned paper.

Kit consists of a leather satchel containing fifteen nonferrous metal uhi (chisel blades), fourteen bone uhi, and a taper with fixed uhi. The Western and Eastern Pacific method of tattooing is based on the use of broad notched combs of varying widths called uhi, dipped in dark pigment, and struck into the skin with small mallets known as tā. The teeth of the comb pierce the skin and deposit the pigment. Māori brought this method of tattooing with them from Eastern Polynesia. As the art and practice of tā moko developed in isolation in Aotearoa New Zealand, Māori pioneered the use of smaller, narrower uhi without teeth that cut grooves through the skin by gouging and channeling. This process was followed by the application of small, toothed uhi combs that applied the pigment.
19th century tā moko kit of a tohunga tā moko (expert tattooist). Traditionally only bone blades were used, especially albatross wing bones because of their light weight together with hard, high density bone structure. After Europeans arrived in New Zealand, metal was adopted.

Patoromu is attributed with the development of the carved presentation bowl, a developmental and innovative response to an increased demand for Maori carvings from Europeans during the 1850's and 1860's. This particular kumete whakairo was presented to Tamihana Te Rauparaha, son of the famous Ngāti Toa warrior chief Te Rauparaha who is today remembered for popularising the haka (posture dance) 'Ka Mate, Ka Mate', associated with New Zealand's national rugby team the All Blacks.
This 19th C kumete whakairo (carved lidded presentation bowl) is attributed to the Ngāti Pikiao master carver Patoromu Tamatea. Large figure-supported, lidded presentation bowls such as this are a response to increased Pākehā demand for Māori art.
