Hi there Chuma…
I’ve just seen your art in Carte Blanche and heard of your story. You are so incredibly inspiring and have left me speechless. The fact that you have some through so much and still have your faith at the centre of your life is even more inspiring. Thank you for allowing something so beautiful to come from an incredible hardship. I’m sorry that things are rough and I will be praying for you and what’s to come. God Bless xx
I saw your story on carte blanche. I am from the Eastern cape too. A town called Barkly East. I work in Johannesburg.
I am down in Cape Town at the end of February this year for work and wanted you to paint me a picture of 3 people that I have always looked up to on the same canvas.
Will you let me know how much you will charge me for that, if it s too low I ll increase the amount : )
What materials you need that I can buy at the store for you?
You art reminds me of all the good things in this world — that even in the darkest places, there is always light. You are such a kind spirited soul and I think that you have the most courageous and brave charisma. Your voice is so beautiful and it gives me hope to see that there are still people like you in the world. Keep having faith and hope.
Hi Chuma. I have just watched your story on Carte Blanche. You are an inspiring woman and your drawings tell individual stories. I would love to follow your blog.
Thank you
