Higher Education Years - PE Technicon
Higher Education
In 1994 I began to paint with my mouth on the motivation of my family and friends. At the end of the same year “the Association of Mouth and Foot Painting Artists Worldwide” accepted me as a student and granted me a bursary for a first term of three years – a wonderful privilege indeed. On 1st of April 1996 I was accepted as a resident of “Quad house” which is a Self-help Centre for quadriplegics in the Eastern Cape. This was the year that I started a new season. I lived & worked there for seven years and was actively involved in various Welfare Organizations as well as outreached opportunities towards less privileged communities, a passion of mine.
During these times I’ve studied Fine Art respectively for five years at Port Elizabeth Technicon. Two years of study for the first year, and one year break in order to teach a disabled friend to paint, and one year where I passed my second year of study. I did my third and final year only partially towards my Diploma. I did not finish my studies, but did gain valuable Academic & Practical experience during these five years.
I am a student with “the Association of Mouth and Foot Painting Artists Worldwide” for the past 17 years. Iwill be evaluated for a further term during March 2013. My goal in this journey and all these years of study and hard work is to become a full member with “the Association of Mouth and Foot Painting Artists Worldwide (VDMFK)”.
All Honor, Glory, Might and Power do I give unto our Heavenly Father & our Lord Jesus Christ whom entrusted me this talent through His Holy Spirit. May His Name alone be glorified through my artworks! - Johannes Swanepoel
