Mere Pounamu, Patu and Wahaika

Today we looked at Mere Pounamu, Patu and Wahaika.   I enjoyed sketching these objects as I have some unfinished examples of each in my workshop.  These were given to me from my bro inlaw Johnny.  So while Kawiti was explaining things I could see the forms and figure out how you would cut out and shape.

We had a go at sketching designs thinking about the 3D form.  It's a great way to get your head around how you would approach these projects.
