About Me: 

Hi there
I'm a self taught artist living in Malmesbury, Cape Town, South Africa. I have a small shop in town where I paint and sell take-away foods daily. My passion is art and connecting with people who are creative and have a love for anything artistic.
My near future plan is to change my shop into a art centre where children can come and learn different art styles, mediums and techniques. Hoping in the process to keep them off the streets and away from crime.

Anyone with cool ideas on where to get funding and how to do this is welcome to contact me.

Tarra

My Passions: 
Art, children, food, fun
My Challenges: 
Funding, People's ignorance
My Vision for the Future: 
Fighting crime with Art
My Areas of Expertise: 
Art
