Such an impressive young artist!

 

Its a shame that she does not have much in terms of resources or tuition. She would benefit form lesson in human anatomy and perspective.

 

I do not understand why Somali artists feel like they can learn how to draw or paint on their own. Art just like any other discipline has been taught for hundreds of years now, and whenever I see a Somali artist you can totally tell they are self taught, which for the most part mean great social commentary but with often crude and poor execution. I am yet to see a Somali artist back home with a good understanding of colour and light, or the use of palettes, i think they would totally kick *** if given some fundamentals in drawing and painting with access to life drawing classes and still life setups.
