My name is Vincent, I'm an African guy from Nigeria. I'm an artist who faced some challenges. This is how it started.
I have an amazing talent, wish is Art. I found out my love for art at the age of fifteen (15).
As a young boy I had this dream of creating my own art, but I was to scared to try. I know some relatives who are into art. So I watch them create amazing art, I use to be the boy who claims people art, using them to show off.
Until I decided to try art, it was actually fun, but I wasn't good at it, I mean, no one is perfect though. I fell in love with art and started making my research, learning more on YouTube, mingling with other artists.
I improve everyday, and I kept practicing.
my hard work earned me a free trial to learn art from one of the best artist.
I was so amazed and happy.
because I've always wanted to be an artist, and my dreams are gradually coming to past,
so I decided to create a Facebook page for my art. I posted some of my art and my art got the attention of a white man. He said, I love your art boy, do you have an account I can send you some money, I was so shocked and thought it was a scam. But after some few interaction, I came realize that he was actually serious. I gave him my account details and he credited me. And he said to me, boy keep practicing and you will get there. I was so happy because it was my first time.
My dream of becoming an artist was getting so serious. So I decided to try a few changes to my art style, I failed several times and the worst mistake I did: was to give up on art.
But few months later I come to realize that art is part of me.
