You deserved to be celebrated.



The most beautiful thing I have ever experienced was when I got packs of Poster Colour for children in my Book Club. They had brushes with coloured cardboards papers clipped on their drawing boards; it was a feast of Free Styles.
Children express so much the beauty and colour of life in their paintings. It’s like a sudden surge of light through a window just opened to darkroom. Yet, you feel the touch of innocence and the scent of the sense of natural humour seriously. There would be no distraction and the things you might think are distractions become their attraction. They paint it in.
The flexibility of their strokes and unswerving assertion of colours pass beyond the mastery of Picasso and the rest of the masters. When they have paints, they simply ignore colour code of conducts (CCC), and apply arbitrarily that often the paste-remnant become artfully more colourful than Art.
One that was hellbent on drawing/painting a chicken i.e Okuko, at a midpoint said, it was no more chicken she was drawing.

“I am no longer drawing Okuko, it is Nkita!”

The courage was confusing, the metamorphosis unnaturally natural: how can a bird being drawn, almost at a completion turned out to become something of the canine? Nkita means a dog in Igbo language.
I know you will like to see the pictures. Won’t you? Let me know, so I know what to do next.

 However, this page is a special dedication to a special person: Thembisile.
 Her colouring with crayons are far too well beyond her age.
She deserves this stage of honour for outstanding performance as a

And above, EVERY GOOD GIRL DESERVES A PRAISE!
She is, therefore Thembisile deserves a praise.
