    Local Customs: beach art
  • Tip Rating:
  • at low tide, sun out and when he feels good, he comes to the beach at New Brighton and does his drawings, with stick and rake, and as fine touch up...paua shells
    everything he needs he packs on his old, black bike and shares his way of life and expression with who ever likes to watch him...it is always a great day when he is on the beach... 450 times so far!!
