I love using my art to showcase the rich cultural heritage of Africa. Mostly figurative.
Where do you find inspiration?I draw inspiration from global trends, and African cultures and histories.
What would you do with $25,000?I will rent a front store here in Vancouver to setup a spacious studio where I will be doing a lot of exploration and training people who are inspired by my art. I will also love to import crafts and souvenirs from Africa to show in my store.
