Taniela's practice also extends to illustration, where he has collaborated with authors on a range of children's books. To date, Taniela has created drawings for books by Olini Fonua (When There's Rain, Lilibet & Kody) and Emeli Pouvalu (Ko Paka Mo 'Ene Kau Hiva). The artist hopes to continue illustrating, forging exciting new partnerships with authors.
