Jeribai Andrew-jaja

In my search for purpose, I discovered my unrivaled passion for the arts. I feel fulfilled by creating and sharing art with the world. I create my works using graphite and charcoal pencils because of the vibrancy the dark value brings in combinations with light backgrounds and the emotions I can create using black and white.
My creative process consists of creating a composition with a muse (model) that perfectly fits the concept in my mind and then a photoshoot to serve as a reference. A portrait drawing takes a duration of 100 to 200 hours to complete.
Ever since I realized I have this gift; it has been a burning desire to share it with the world to create a positive impact and fulfill my purpose. My art can be entertaining, therapeutic, educational, inspirational and in all, Friendly. I choose realism Niche because I believe my works have conversations with people and brings comfort.
