Mwamba Chikwemba

26 YEAR OLD ZAMBIAN GIRL ALREADY MAKING IT THROUGH ART
The passion and love I gave to my work gave me a different understanding that something different can happen in my life and for sure when I applied the concept of love and passion everything immediately changed because at first before I realized its importance, painting was a part time talent when I was working for pick and pay stores but never sold any piece until I resigned my job because it made me realize that I was sitting on my gift. You can be your own stakeholder of your life all you need is to have the desire for greatness as a girl child, greatness isn’t just in some of us but it is for sure in all of us, you just have to choose to be great there is no such things like am better than you we are all great in our own ways.
