About Ezekiel.

My name is Ezekiel Charles, and I was born on April 16, 2002, in the village of Olgilai. I live with my mother and my younger sibling.

I completed my fourth year of secondary school in 2020. After finishing my fourth year, I passed with a Division 3 grade. I was assigned to a college, but I couldn't attend because I was given a course I didn't like, and I couldn't change it due to financial reasons.

In 2021, I started thinking differently about my future and what I could do. I realized that I had a talent for drawing, but my skills were not up to par. So, I decided to focus on practicing and improving my drawing throughout the year 2021.

In 2022, I learned about computer training programs offered by KOICS. I enrolled and took courses in computer basics and AI Data Annotation Skills. During this time, I had the opportunity to meet Mr. and Mrs. Rhee. They appreciated my artwork and supported me by purchasing my paintings, offering valuable advice, and providing me with art supplies. I'm truly grateful to them for their ongoing support, which has helped me in my journey as an artist.

My dream in the field of art is to become a top-notch artist who uses my artwork to educate, touch people's emotions, and entertain both the community and the world at large. I also aspire to create artworks using various mediums, including pencil colors (Faber Castell colors) and painting (Acrylic colors). Furthermore, I wish to continue creating more artworks that convey love, hope, and happiness to reach people all around the world.

Additionally, I have a dream to establish a group of artists that will utilize art as a means to educate the community and the world at large on various issues.

The challenges I face include the availability of art supplies. To produce quality work, I require good-quality and sufficient art materials. I have realized that there are many art supplies that I haven't been able to acquire yet, and having access to them would significantly enhance the quality of my work. Another challenge is the uncertainty of income from my artwork.
