I am a digital/traditional artist who uses mixed mediums to produce my art digitally mainly on the marketplace Rarible as NFT. I have started a project called #thedap (The Digital Art Project) where I am taking 10 minutes every day to produce a piece of art. The first step of the project is to realize 365 pieces of art by the end of 2022. I believe that art is life, it is the deep expression of the soul.
Hilarion’s Theory of Color (0/10)
10 Minutes. 10 Colors. 10 Mondays.I grew up inside color. Not as a theory first but as a feeling. Before I knew the names of days, I knew their shades. In my mind, the week arrived like a palette: Monday was White. Tuesday Yellow. Wednesday Grey. Thursday Orange. Friday Green (the day I was born). Saturday Brown. Sunday Black. It took me years to notice what was obvious: I don’t just see colors. I remember in colors. Some colors calm me. Some make me restless. Some open a door in my chest and...

In many African societies, women have been creators, custodians, and preservers of culture through their art. As an African artist myself, through my “Art is Life...

How to Handle Criticism and Feedback as an Artist
The Vulnerability of Sharing ArtSharing your art is like standing in front of the world without armor. It’s vulnerable, raw, and deeply personal. Each painting, poem, or sketch carries pieces of your emotions, your memories, your unspoken truths. So when someone criticizes or questions your work, it can feel as though they are questioning you. I know this feeling well. When I launched my project Art is Life — committing to create a painting every single day in just ten minutes — I was terrifi...
