A beautiful work of art.

The artist is African and developed his own natural talent.

I really fancy how he dressed up the faucet (tap) and the drain pipes here on the wall. That glass jar looks real and the girl painting the masks looks so cute. The cool thing is that the girl can also use the water in the jar to clean her painting brushes :)

This was done on an ugly wall at one of our partnering charities, as the CEO contacted this guy to do his thing on the wall. You won't believe how beautiful this wall turned out to be. A real showpiece.
But come and look.

This was the before.

I cannot draw to save my life, but luckily I have a mind's eye that can see the completed work even if it is like this.
This guy obviously knew what he was doing although even I couldn't really imagine how great this wall would turn out upon completion.

Right and here are the finished works.

Just look what a visual pleasure this ugly wall has become.

Yes indeed, Yonela is a true artist and as a child from very poor beginnings, he was a student in one of the charity's art classes. The charity educates poor children from the surrounding schools and they have several other projects for children running, including ballet, music, art, pottery, drama and some other projects.

All apart from the formal education classes that they also offer to the children and youth.
This is where @papilloncharity comes in, as they offer computer-enhanced math lessons, lego play, life skills and leadership development.
Now Papillon has partnered with them in the feeding project and the new computer coding project.

I will do a full end of year post soon to show you all of the charities that Papillon partnered with during the year.

We hope that you have enjoyed this post.

And That's All Friends.

Oh yes, these paintings look great. I like the painting girl and especially the Minion holding the jar right under the water tap most. The sketches look also promising.

!BEER and !WINE - both make a nice dinner with !PIZZA :)

Thank you Hannes and I forgot that the little guy holding the jar is called a minion 🤣
I like many things in here, but you are right that painting girl is really great and the minion was a brilliant idea to cover the waste pipes.
Sketching is unfortunately not one of my skills and it was great to see the procedure that the artist followed.

Cheers and thanks.

My daughter learns sketching and drawing at her design school and she's really good, and although later they will design with a computer they first have to learn doing it by hand. When I was young I have also been a good drawer, but when began with the police school I stopped drawing. Maybe when I'm too old to get out to take photos I will start to draw again, who knows.

!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

So amazing as when the new coding lessons started here, the students were also taken out into nature where they learned the basic rules of coding before touching the computers.

I am sure that your daughter will become an expert in graphics and designing.
As for you? Yes I can picture you sitting on a bench under a tree and drawing all of the pretty girls that walks past 🤣🤣🤣

Cheers and thanks.

Yep, first you have to learn the basics - learn to draw a circle before you draw an apple 😀

Well, I could imagine that too, but maybe my imagination would let me draw them a bit different, maybe without clothes 😎 !LOLZ

I think that you saw the yellow circles that I draw on some of my photos, none of them are a nice circle, as they are all a bit sad looking 🤣 !LOLZ

Hey, here we go again and I thought that you knew that children might also read this 🤣
Oh! I know their clothes were all on the washing lines 🤣

Cheers and thanks.

Haha, drawing with a mouse isn't easy - I wouldn't be able to make a round circle neither 🤣

Oh sh*t, why do I always forget that we are on a kind Blockchain and should take care about the words we are using.
And while the clothes dry, the girls take a shower outside and ask me to wash their backs ... oops, I did it again 😂 !LOLZ

Cheers with !BEER and a !PIZZA :)

That's exactly the problem as my mouse has a mind of its own. I say draw left and it decides to draw right 🤣

You see? I think that your priest will be very nervous when they appoint you as a Sunday school teacher. The poor guy will not be able to sleep at night 🤣 !LOLZ
Torture to wash the girls backs as all of their boyfriends will sit watching your every move, so you will also go to sleep just as frustrated as your priest 🤣🤣🤣

Cheers and thanks.

Maybe you should turn the mouse the other way round 🤣 !LOLZ

Well, my secret will be the foam, much, very much foam and the boys will not see anything what I'm doing 🤣

There's no Sunday school here, so the priest is safe as well as the kids 😉

Guess what? I have tried to turn the mouse around and I draw a circle better with my left hand than my right hand 🤣 !LOLZ

So now you think that the boys will allow foam Hannes? I bet that they "might" only allow a pure water hose and force you to wear plastic gloves 🤣

Shame no Sunday school? This explains a lot of things to me as the children grow up to be naughty buggers like one that I know 🤣

Cheers and thanks.

Haha 🤣 !LOLZ

How should I get all the dirt off the girls? These are very dirty girls and shower gel with lots of foam is needed. Plastic gloves? No way, I will tell them I'm allergic to plastic 🤣🤣🤣

If there were no naughty buggers like the one you know, then good guys like you would be boring😂

Hahaha, your excuses will not work as they will give you a wet and dry vacuum cleaner to use. Like the ones that they use in the car washing businesses over here.
So you will have to clean the girls without touching them 🤣🤣🤣

Which good guy are you talking about? Me? Nope, I definitely don't belong to that club and if I did all of my friends would be boring priests 🤣

Cheers and thanks.
