As an artist I have a unique touch that if anyone see the artwork has to recognize its done by Madalitso Ziwaoh even without reading my name. Still more I have different genres since we connect with people of different likes. I use oil paints, acrylic paints, pencil, charcoal and watercolor on canvas, mural, plywood, metal, paper, on stone and on any surface. I don't only use paint but also some other things thrown away after being used in the way of recycling them into something artistic. Like news papers to make a subject with a medium called mix media. For example I did a portrait of a child without using any drop of paint but only fabric cutoffs that a tailor throws away. I believe that anything existence is useful. Instead of burning newspapers and fabric cutoffs and pollute the air it is better to recycle those stuff into art.
