Where are you in your creative journey? How did you get there?

I think I’m in a very good place right now. I’ve reached a balance between consistency and experimentation when it comes to my style. I think this is something that a lot of artists struggle with. When you’re “known” for a specific type of style, you tend to feel stuck and get scared to explore. I personally overcame that fear when I started painting full time. It’s been a dream of mine to fully immerse myself into my craft and the growth has been amazing.

Has community impacted your artlife and style? If so, how so?

Yes! Community is everything. I didn’t realize this until I moved to Lagos, Nigeria. I don’t think it has impacted my style but it definitely made a difference in my artlife. Being a studio artist can be very lonely sometimes. It’s one of the downsides of the job. So having a community of people who are in the same boat made me feel less alone. There’s always a friend to visit or to call. (I used to live in Geneva, Switzerland).
