Maori Art Design - Maori Art

What have I learnt? I learnt that Maori Art are important to Maori Culture and ta moko ( Tattoo ), Maori Art have these colour black, red and white feature strongly in Maori Art. The colour red is a symbol of mana (prestige, power, status) and they often used in the decoration of important items such as building and structures. The second thing I learnt was that Traditional Maori art was created using the material available at the time, such as wood, bone, pounamu (Jade or greenstone),paua shell, flax and feathers.

I did a design and used Maori Art. I'm not really sure if it's Maori art or not.
This drawing means dragon in Maori.
