Anele Zangwa was born and raised in Greenville, Eastern Cape Province in South Africa. A talented artist is currently a third year student at Walter Sisulu University and specialises with Additive Mono Print, Painting and Drawing.
“I am very passionate about drawing, my art concepts revolves around the theme of “Hustling” and the aim is to inspire others to embrace their own unique struggles. I am inspired by Andrew Ntshabele. Art has always been my first love, growing up as an introvert, I never liked outdoor life. I have been making art for 12 years now and am not gonna stop”, he said.
Like many careers, Anele is struggling to get more customers and support for his artworks. Sometimes people do not want to pay or pay less for his hardwork. Lack of connection with galleries for exposure is another challenge.
“Artwork needs passion and hardwork. I rely on social media plartforms to market my work and it is not easy. My dream is to be a Sketch Artist / Forensic Artist and help police to solve their cases. I also want to teach art in prisons in order to help people to change their lives and build an art school in my hometown. The industry has a lot of money to take our people out of poverty”, he added.
Aspiring artist must never give up their dreams, they must use what they have to push their talents. Anele is very focused and nothing is going to stop him. Rise Africans Newspaper wish him all the best!
