Summer Learning Journey - Week 1 Day 2 / Kowhaiwhai pattern - Create a kowhaiwhai pattern

🙏Suksabai, talofa lava (english - greetings/hello) blog viewers! New post awaits! 

Kia ora blog viewers this is my kowhaiwhai pattern that I created myself with only two symbols. I used a template for this task. It was a simple pattern to be made. It represents the leaves and the branches on trees. Do you know which is leaves and which is branches? The kuro/fern plant is playing the role of the branch and the mangopare/hammerhead shark as leaves. Do you know the meaning behind the two symbols? The kuro represents peace, growth, new life and strength which the mangopare also represents strength. the mangopare also has two other meanings, power and courage. Hope you enjoyed my description of my own kowhaiwhai! I will name my pattern taiao which means in english, nature.

Haere ra and thank you.                                                                                                                                  -Jin
