Beautiful, Her art speaks but has no mouth, they give euphoria and their soul created by Jyothee.
On the 16th of April, 2017, midday here in Nigeria, I asked JYXDI to let me interview her. To be honest, I really didn't expect much of it all. On that same night, she responded and asked that I send my questions via email. Her paintings are not only jaw dropping but so precise YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE REAL THING. She's exceptional at what she does and not only that, her paintings represent not just the Anime she's drawing but her own perspective of it. She explains herself with few words but all I could hear were loud chants from this ANIME GODDESS.
And the chants:
"My name is Jyothee, more commonly known as JYXDI. I am a oil painter. Painting has been my passion for 10 years. It is my hobby and now it is my career. I work from home.
I am a Sri Lankan who lives in Toronto Canada now.
I do custom oil paintings, acrylics, watercolours and do
custom jackets.
I improve every time I paint. I am always learning something new.
I identify most with Anime
I enjoy oil painting."
What’s your strongest memory of your childhood?
When my father bought me sketch books to start drawing.
What’s your favourite art work? Too many, hard to pick one.
Why art? Art is everything around us. So why not?
Is the artistic life lonely? It gets lonely. What do you do to counteract it?
I put my thoughts into my paintings.
Should art be funded? of course! it takes hours of work.
What is your dream project? To start my own clothing line under JYXDI & go worldwide.
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve been given? Practice.
How would you advice artists who want to start earning through art?
Just start putting products out there. Get your crowd.
Thank you so much, Jyothee. Follow Jyothee on instagram: @jyxdi
That's all I could get out of this phenomenal woman but next week I'm going to be interviewing someone with another perspective of art. HINT: Nigerian fashion.
