Today we’d like to introduce you to Raphael Bahindwa.
Hi Raphael, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
Everything started with me just loving Manga, Art, and storytelling. When I was in middle school, I created my own manga called Mazari. I remember I was drawing too much when I was little. In high school that’s when I was more into coloring, and that’s when I started to paint.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
There is really not a smooth road for an artist in my opinion. The only time an artist feels smooth is when there is a support system.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
I’m a Fine Artist disciplined in Painting who’s from the Democratic Republic of Congo. I received my B.F.A. in Painting from SCAD Atlanta. What I’m the most proud of, is the support system of my family, friends and everyone who supports my Journey as an artist.
Where we are in life is often partly because of others. Who/what else deserves credit for how your story turned out?
Definitely my amazing family, and friends, my teacher in high school, Ms. Robyn Wilms, All my friends and Professors at SCAD, and myself for not giving up.
