# About me

Hi there!

I'm an artist/illustrator, self-taught in Photoshop and Illustrator. Watercolour is my favourite medium, as well as oils.

Born and raised in Africa, I tried eveything everyone else told me, then they left me alone to be an artist. Creating art is like biting fingernails, said Picasso. I just cannot stop living, thinking and dreaming up new stuff to do. If you LOVE what you do, you have found happiness.

Hi Jo,
I remembered that you recommended me opening an account in deviantart and finally I did. I quickly found your excellent work here. Best wishes.
