To be honest Tesie, we don't do this enough, but we should.

How can you, an artist, sell your work if you don't have pride in your ability?

I remember doing my first marathon in PNG. I was not expected to get a place. I had only been on the island and nobody knew me. Moreover they didn't expect m to get a place.

I came third out of ten (only ten women, but lots of males) and I felt huge pride in myself, but telling anyone was a different story. That is not how I was brought up.
