Art is amazing, art is life that we aliving and art is what we do. Doing art without emotion, is like a chocolate cake without sugar
Art is not what you see, but art is what you do and make other artists and people 's see. I like beading and mixed media because those are very strong techniques
.
Art is life task and lends courage to both artists and views!!!!
Sunya Shahieda Beukes
Sunya Shahieda Beukes, known as Sue, was born on the 9th of february 1991.
I started drawing from a very young age after I saw my father draw something one day. Ever since art has always had a great impact on my life that's why I decided to go the college of the arts where I'm a 3rd year student, majoring in mixed media paintings and semi realistic drawings. The story on my painting is about how Nala has been exposed to the different cultires in Namibia, how warm and vibrant we are as people.
