Bianka Atlas from BirdCare Aotearoa

The wonderful and talented New Zealand artist, Olivia Bezett, has created a stunning baby pīwakawaka (fantail) artwork especially to raise funds for BirdCare Aotearoa.

100% of the money will go directly to BirdCare Aotearoa.

Artwork details:

-A5 size, one-off mini original (meaning no print will ever be made!)
-Polychromos pencils on Fabriano Academia paper.
-Unframed
-Comes with a certificate of authenticity

Olivia took the reference photo for this piece herself, in the south island on Lake Ohau (fun fact: her now husband proposed to her a few minutes after taking the pic!)

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
