An interview with Roland Ekpere (A poet and an artist)

Can you introduce yourself? My name is Roland, Roland onose Ekpere, the only boy in a family of five kids, am a 22 years old studying geology at the federal university of technology, a poet, a believer in changing the world through not just words but our actions, last but not the least am a Manchester united fan. What inspired you to become an artist? Basically what inspired me at first was the need to get things done by myself, when I was much younger I loved drawings, shapes, any art related but I could not do those things by myself and had to give it to people who were in that field to help me draw and paint but overtime they were very busy and didn't have time to help me, so I just had to pick up that mantle and do things from my own perspective. When did you start drawing? I started drawing at around 6-7 yrs of age.
