Petra’s mother is Pina Goja and her father is Kinsley Goja, an Ina’e clanman. She is learning to paint old Sahuoté clan designs from the Assistant Paramount Chief of Ömie men, Albert Sirimi. Albert is a highly respected elder and the foremost authority on Sahuoté clan stories and designs, having learnt from his mother, Avarro. Avarro is still remembered today as a master Sahuoté clan painter and has left a vast legacy of designs to her living descendants like Petra.
