I got so excited when I chose to draw the picture of my favourite subject, African Women, my culture. I proudly chose to draw the three strong African Women because I feel that I was so lucky to be born as an African Lady.
The painting I drew also shows how African women are caretakers, hard workers, responsible, kind and dreamers. They are determined to fight for their tomorrow because they are the change makers.

Peacock is one of the most beautiful creatures in the world and famous for its feathers as described in this painting.
I love painting pictures which are challenging and that have a lot of details in order for me to learn new techniques.
My favourite subject to paint are birds.

The African Zebra is one of the most loved animals all around the world.
This is because of its beauty and unique stripes and is often the face of the parks.
I think zebra is amongst the politest animals in the park as it is very calm and does not disturb other animals. People from all around the world travel to Tanzania for the sake of seeing African zebra, hence this is one of the reasons I am proud of having zebras in Africa.
My favourite part of this painting are the leaves and flowers surrounding the Zebras face.
This painting describes the beautiful natural resources found in Tanzania.
The mountain is Mt. Kilimanjaro which is the highest snow caped free standing mountain in Africa. There ere also beautiful wild animals represented by the giraffe. This is a poster like painting which brings great memories of being in Tanzania
Not only in Africa you can find vast plains like the Serengeti but also jungle environments such as I have depicted in the painting.
loften paint colourful close up paintings of animals and African people but this time I wanted to try something new and use less colours. I really enjoyed painting in this new style.
An extraordinary account of Gemma Sisia's twenty years as the founder of St Jude's, a school that is changing the lives of some of the poorest children in Tanzania.
From humble beginnings, with just three students and one volunteer teacher, St Jude's now provides free education to over 1,800 Tanzanian school students and supplies more than 10,000 government school students with volunteer teachers each year.
On average students have to walk around 7.5 miles every day to go to school which can be a contributing factor to drop out. St Jude's fleet of 25 school buses is the key to ensuring that our students remain in school until graduation. By generously donating, you are supporting the safe and reliable transportation of students for an entire school term!
