    This man is so positive it's infectious! Today I had an urge to paint (I am no artist!) all I had was ink from my printer but I went for it

    This man’s story of life, hardship and overcoming is something to be admired. To go through such tragedies in life and be able to salvage something from the ashes is special.

    ......damn....I need...to get back and out of my hole of depression, I need to create again....I will, create again! Thank you, take the hits and ask for more, don’t back down, stand up! Failure will teach you to better yourself, not even attempting, will leave you with nothing learned.

    Just when I am at a low point, I come across you. Thankyou, thankyou again, I realise one must have and accept the failures many times before finding the fluidity and magic of painting. I keep all these failures stacked against the wall and keep on trying. A great video, you have inspired me not to give up!

    Great energy and loved the way you sectioned view and used negative space. I've always had trouble with spacing. Sorry I missed most of the live but have just watched your life of the Artist video and the one show segment. You do Nigeria and England proud. I was introduced to you re a Ghanaian friend. An inspirational jolt for me to get out there! Thank you.🙏🙏🏾

    I love you. I love your spirit and I love that your journey although painful brought you here. Thank God for your life.
    Doing something ordinary for a long time makes it extraordinary. How did you sustain your interest in art even in times when it seems as if nothing was going right?
