In this episode, I speak with Dr. Mimi Adu-Serwaah a pharmacist who shares her  journey that led her to become a professional painter. Amidst the challenges of 2020, she turned to painting to deepen her connection with scripture. Mimi transitioned from abstract art to figurative work in 2021, feeling a strong urge to explore new dimensions in her craft.  Mimi's unique approach involves painting portraits of black women using marbling and hand-painting techniques, symbolizing the interplay between perfection and imperfection. We also talk about: Her signature style, which is a blend of abstraction and portraiture, focuses on black women.Finding her artistic path through solitude and self-confidence, not seeking validation.The challenges of dealing with creating art where isolation and business aspects intersect.The modern-day woman's role, where various experiences and perspectives contribute to a broader understanding of women's lives.Her continuous learning, growth, and understanding of both herself and God.The importance of not accepting "no" for an answer and producing work of high quality that reflects one's identity and purpose.
