Graphic Arts As Literature
By John Waihee IV
Making faces
After an intense selection process (walking around the office and showing sketches to people), we have a wiener in the Linda-and-Mazie caricature contest.
But first a word about our runners-up: Their names are Christina Chun and Nancy McCord. They're from Honolulu.
The big mamoo, however, goes to (you'll recognize the name) -- goes to (seriously, we didn't tell anybody who the artists were whilst selecting) -- goes to (is he running for anything?) -- goes to (oh, the suspense):

John Waihee IV. Yep, the son. And Office of Hawaiian Affairs trustee.
By Nancy McCord
Now in his early 30s, JWIV earned an associate degree in commercial arts from Honolulu Community College in 1993, worked primarily as manager of Keo's Restaurant (working his way up from busboy) until being elected in 2000 to OHA, the first son of a former Hawaii governor elected to state public office.
JWIV prefers graphite pens over the messiness of charcoal, and acrylics over oils for paintings. When he was elected, he threatened to display some of his artwork at his OHA office.
