📝My name is Faith Udoh ( fondly addressed as Faithie or Faithy, depending on which one seems correct lol) I'm a Nigerian, precisely from Akwa Ibom State, the southern part of the country. I studied Fine and Industrial Arts in the prestigious University of Uyo, where I specialized in painting, graduated in 2018 with a Bachelor of Arts degree (BA).
🎨WHY CHOOSE ART?
Visual Arts and Art expression has always appealed to me from childhood, from the young age of 4. Drawing in the sand with sticks, wrecking havoc on any blank sheet of paper at home with crayons hahahaha, watching in awe whenever I saw an artist draw or paint... Informed my decision to follow educationally, professionally and as a lifestyle the path of Art.
🚦JOURNEY INTO THE HIVE COMMUNITY
First I want to specially thank @geyzee for introducing me to this amazing community, I'd probably never know about hive if he hadn't introduced me to it. My love for sharing my works and experiences as an artist and getting to interact with other artists as well got me interested in becoming a member of the hive community.
WHO IS FAITH UDOH?
Good question (takes a sip from a delicate cup of coffee)... At first impression 75% of people quickly conclude that all artists are very much introverts, well I guess that's true or maybe a myth, you tell me what you think 😉. Ambivert best describes me (more on the introvert side still)
My hobbies are; Travelling, dancing, singing, daydreaming 😂, going to the movies, sleeping 😉 and eating fruits😋... Ooops hold on a sec, was I about to not include painting and drawing as a hobby? I love photography, taking selfies and editing pictures.

An oil colour painting on canvas by me, inspired by the beauty and motions of an African dancer.
Oil colour on canvas by me, this abstract painting depicts the talking drum, a musical instrument that's significant to the Yorubas (A western ethnic group in Nigeria).
There's so much visual arts expression I'm going to be sharing with the hive community☺️.
Through sharing my works and experiences on hive and exploring diverse blogs on this platform, I believe more value will be added to the community as members will know that their works are seen and appreciated.
Thank you for having me #hive this #introduction is the beginning of my activities on #hive.
