The artist that inspires me comes from South Africa and goes by the name of "Faith 47" or Faith XLVII. She is unique and different because she uses her skill to paint majestically beautiful images on the sides of buildings and inside abandoned buildings. The locations she chooses for each one are in often poverty-stricken places, and the art brings attention to these. It creates something beautiful and memorable out of a depressing and lonely scene. I think my favorite part about this artist is that she is so modest. Instead of doing her artwork in large-scale places and getting paid to do her work, she mostly does this without showing a face or being able to sell her pieces. The artwork itself is truly amazing, the way she is able to paint such large pieces over different textures and make it look so realistic. She chooses mostly animal and human scenes and they all look extremely realistic.
Her artwork is shown on buildings internationally. This includes India, USA, UK, Italy, Taiwan, Germany, South Africa, France, China, Tahiti, Canda, Austria, Sweden, Tunisia, Scotland, Madagascar, Puerto Rico, Spain, Israel, Greece, Slovakia, Netherlands, Brazil, Belgium, and Kenya. https://faith47.com/7-83-hz/
