Biography:
Lettonia's mother taught her how to paint. ''My favourite colours are purple and red. I likes painting jila (snakes), kirti-kirti (kangaroo) and wamala (bush tomato).
I likes writing and reading at school and going to sport, science and art class.
We paint turtles and sunrise paintings. They make her feel good and comfy. Science is fun.''
