MICHAEL BARKER

Their home, named ‘Te Mara' (which translated from Maori means ‘The Garden') is positioned in protected native bush 300 metres above the township of Te Aroha overlooking the Hauraki Plains... Inspired by his surroundings, Michael's work is underpinned by the unshakeable philosophy ‘natura est magister' that ‘nature is the teacher'... Michael is an established fine artist based in Te Aroha, North Island New Zealand.
