SHADRECK SIAMATE

Zambian Artist

I was born in 1978 and grew up in a small village  in Zambia. I attended school until level 9 when I had to leave due to financial problems. There was no work for me in the village; so, in 2000, I moved to urban Livingstone, where a friend gave me work in his store. I learned how to paint and eventually bought my own curio shop, where I have been painting for over 18 years. I enjoy meeting tourists from all over the world and seeing their smiles when they view the vibrant colors of my art. 

​

Art should speak to you, so whether you purchase one of my paintings or not,

I hope you enjoy my work. I put my heart and soul, and the spirit of Africa, into every piece.

God bless you,

Shadreck
