About our Artist: 'My father, who is also a carver, introduced me to crafts. I started with sandpapering at the age of ten after school. After I mastered that skill, I moved on to learn how to cut the brass and aluminum used to adorn the mask. I also was trained in painting masks and applying beads to them. The fixing of the beads happens to be a difficult part, but the final outcome of the artwork and their attractive, beautiful nature are what make me want to affix the beads over and over again. When I completed high school, I decided to continue in this field. I worked together with my father for a while before he agreed to let me be on my own. I work in his workshop but can sell my designs myself. I therefore have to come up with my own styles. What attracts me most about my art is creating beaded designs, because it is believed that beads are very attractive and drive attention to the work. My hope and dream is to become a renowned artist of my time.'
