It all started with this, he told me, as he showed me the piece in his handphone.
My mouth dropped. His eyes qlistened at the impact .
"I am shocked".
I was at a loss of words.
How could I describe how I felt.
I knew I was chatting with a GREAT ARTIST.
And he was a humble teenager.
I guess this seems to be one of the traits of greatness.
He did not really think much of himself.
Yet others could see it.
When he did this piece his art teacher in THE BRITISH SCHOOL OF ALEXANDRIA, EGYPT told him: " You are a good artist Afi. You just don't know it yet..."
If you are interested to meet AFI and view his work call me at 013 837 0568
In fact, he wants to have a SKETCH ALONG with you if you would like to share your work with him.
"It is very important that artists encourage each other" he added.
