MEET A PROWESS FEMALE ARTIST.

Can we me meet you ma?

My name is Adegoke Temitope Janet (ATJ). A 400level student of Bowen university Iwo, Osun state. Department of anatomy.

 Why do you choose to be an artist despite your discipline (Anatomy)?

 Ahahhaah... I have been drawing for 12 years now.. Since jss1.. Art is my hobby slash passion am actually just an amateur artist am still learning how to draw. And i actually want to be a medical doctor.

What inspires you to draw?

Plenty things actually first of God all good and perfect gifts come from him.
Then secondly is self challenge. When i see something am like.. Can i do this? How did they do this? Is it easy?? Will i get it???? I should get better.... Etc etc
Thirdly also when i see other artists work am like... God!!!!! This is soooo nice!!! I need to do something nice too!

When do you intend to go for medicine?

Hopefully as soon as i graduate next year, by Gods grace.

How would you cope with your drawings coupled with medicine? 

I believe God will see me through He just has to consider the duration of studying medicine.

Don't you think it would affect your marital life? 

Everything is in Gods hand
I believe God will give me wisdom and by God's grace everything will be balanced.

What would you love to be known for, Artist or Medical doctor?

 Both😂😂😂😂

The popular Dr Sid of Mavins Records studied Medcine but was actually known for Music, looking at future, give us a perfect assumption of what you would really love to be known for?

I guess my answer will be : Lets watch and see.

Has your present discipline ever inspire you to draw before?

Hahahahha
Currently I do 13 forms of art. Drawing people is too cliche for me. Everyone draws people. If you pick 100 artists in Nigeria 99 are drawing people. I want to be different. I want to expose Nigerians to other forms of art because Nigerians just feel art is about drawing people. Everyone always asks me if I will draw people. Because that's all they know.

So I  want to change the mindset.

Can you list those 13 forms of art that you ventured into?

1 silhouette art
2 cartoon
3 anime
4 geometric art
5 henna art
6 mandala
7 micro art
8 anatomy illustrations
9 women's fashion illustrations
10 science drawings
11 calligraphy
12 abstract art
13 motif art

 What's the highest duration you've ever used in drawing?

Laughs, more than 15hours plus. I can draw from morning to night.

Should we call your drawing skill a hobby or a gift from God?

I usually stop keeping record when i reach 12/13/14 hours
Don't understand this part
Its both! Janet's Art is 2%talent and 98% hard work practice perseverance and Gods grace. I stop keeping record of the hours when i reach 12 hours or 13 hours or 14hours. Around this period because I will be tired.
