Mother of pearl print by Remiah
Last Saturday a woman visited my stall at the market rocking some phat ass pearls. She looked so glamorous. So I just had to paint my version of her.

'My inspiration stems from my culture, my surroundings and mostly as a Cook Island woman. We hold a certain boldness about ourselves, as mothers, mama's, aunties, sisters, friends. With strength, elegance, playfulness and a touch of secrecy.
Remiah loves creating using a wide range of mediums, but predominantly working with acrylic. “Exploring contemporary art styles all with a Cook Island flair connects me more to culture.'
