My name is Richard Yumba Ngombe, and I come from a background where art has always been part of my life. I began drawing with my father when I was very young, and since then, art has remained a way for me to understand and express the world around me.
In my artistic practice, I work primarily with acrylic painting, charcoal, and graphite pencils. My drawings often explore hyper realistic representation, focusing on emotion, expression and Portraits. While my paintings i use dry acrylic techniques to create rough, textured surfaces that symbolize struggle and resilience. Through both mediums, I aim to translate inner experiences into visible form where every mark or layer tells part of a story.
