Kia ora mai ano. This year I was asked to sit for a senior class of art students so that they could sketch and draw my portrait for their art portfolios. I was humbled and very pleased to sit for them one morning in Term 2. The students asked a lot of questions about my upbringing. Where I was born and raised and information about the town in which I grew up which was Moerewa. After the sitting they (the senior students) would come to my office and show me their sketches and drawings. Here is one of them that I was allowed to have a copy of. I am very chuffed to have it. The tuna/ eels in the backround of this drawing represent Moerewa's nickname which was tuna town while I was growing up.
