Kathy and her Mahi

One of my friends is a very talanted worker in glass and this evening was the powhiri and exhibition opening. I have watched her working on her panels that she sketches out then cuts and fired the hand made glass sheets before painting and etching them and refiring them and finally placing and leadlighting them. Her work is just amazing.She had four works in the current exhibition along with several other top Maori women artists from the region (weavers, sculpters and korowai makers).
