About the Project

This page was started by a U.S. expat living and working in Papua New Guinea (PNG). Bea Amaya is a manager at a trucking and logistics company, Trans Wonderland Limited, locally owned and operated within PNG.

"In getting to know my home city, Port Moresby, I notice a large number of 'street artists' with their works for sale throughout the capital. I began thinking how wonderful it would be if some of this beautiful artwork made its way back to the U.S. and to other places around the world. Neither and artist nor an art aficionado, I am merely someone who enjoys beautiful things. As the project grows, perhaps, together, we will find a way for these artists to be recognised and rewarded for their work. I can't wait to see what happens next."

Artist: Elisabeth Kauage

This woman with the lovely smile is the mother of this talented family of artists (Chris, Andrew, Micheal, and Willey). Elisabeth's paintings were quite beautiful, often with a "twist". Many of Elisabeth's works had traditional characters in modern settings. Several of the works were of television satellites, but were made up of some very traditional subjects from PNG, like birds of paradise, flowers, etc.
