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: John Dianger

John had a lot of work on display this day. He seems to have an interest in birds, fish, animals, flowers, etc. John uses a lot of an aqua blue colour in his work, and uses strong black outlining in much of it as well. The scenes depicted in this painting show warriors in full native dress with their kundus (drums). The asking price for this piece was 550 kina, or about $200 USD.
