Our Rising Star no: 198 today is Kgothatso Mahowa from Tzaneen, Limpopo Province in South Africa. Khutty K Creativity Art, as known from social media platforms, is only 23 years old but his work is so amazing. After passing Grade 12 in 2020 at Masalanabo High School, he never looked back.
“Art runs in my veins, I started drawing at an early age, from me it is not just a talent but a gift. I started in 2008 but be more serious in 2012 after following many artists on social media like Facebook. I joined the Art Group on Facebook and was motivated by wonderful works of fellow artists. I did not pressurise myself; I just knew in my heart that I must move in my own pace”, he said.
We asked him about use of caricature art (style of drawing a picture in a funny way or exaggeration), he just laughed and said: “caricature art is my marketing strategy, I know that I will engage more people in a funny way, same time grabbing customers. I am used to get text from famous people I drew using caricature pretending to be angry but they ended up laughing”
Like any other career, Kgothatso mentioned marketing and buying art materials as a big challenge. He always ensures that he carries his drawings whenever he goes to the nearest town and plans to attend events.
“If you want to be successful in art, do not be afraid to take chances, use what you have, take it easy, be yourself, do not listen to negative messages, work hard, be legit and sell your work!”, he concluded.
Rise Africans Newspaper is proud of this youngster, the world must watch out for his beautiful artwork!
