I am a self taught artist who loves all kinds of art work . Growing up in an orphanage made me realize the God given talents with in me and one of them was art. As a kid I remember drawing sketches of people, making photo frames out of local materials,making ropes, doormats, pottery and fixing Jewelry of which I earned some pennies from it. I learnt more skills from people who used to draw but much more from those who used to make local craft work.
I remember my teacher always making us paint a story after reading us one and I think this is where my imaginative composition was developed.
Through alot of practice and tears , I have learnt to be patient with myself and appreciate the kind of art I do. Learning from Others and not trying to be them but trying to perfect my craft and be unique. Every artist has their own fingerprints /Style which they develop after a long time of practice.
Art to me is a therapy, it speaks alot to me and I say out what is on my heart and mind alot through my art work. I am always overjoyed when my art speaks out a story to someone else. I think it's the most satisfying thing than just money.

If I say I went to a known Art school, I would be leing to myself. My school was home, friends who used to critic and my local craft teacher. My bedroom is where I have developed the skills in art through trying, watching and developing the talent in me.
I have used art skills to produce art work over the years since a little kid to pay for my tuition at school and I am grateful to God for this skill.
I currently gradated in a Diploma in clinical medicine and community health. However I would like to pursue a degree in the art field too God willing.
