I titled this piece:
"An african woman" done with a CRAYON

A lot of people who are not from my continent, may find it hard to relate to the struggle of an African woman, African women are strong resilient, beautiful, patient, hardworking and always ensure their family eat well . It is often said by most african youth that "No food taste like your mother's food "😊😊 every african kids always have this mentality at the back of their head because they cherish what thier mum does. Some of the cooking skills i was able to develop today was as a result of the influence of my mother. In some region of africa women really don't have much equal right with men especially in a traditional setting, male child are well cherished because they feel the male child will take up the affairs of the family. Vital decisions are being made by the male child. Despite all of this, african women still stand strong, they work hard to also assist their husband by ensuring their kids feed well. This drawing was done with a crayon, the last time when i used a crayon i was still in highschool.
