“Don’t ambush me with your work and think I’ll buy or accept it even for free says Jalango
Jalango has declined to explain why he will not accept art work from portrait and pencil artists anymore
On his social media he has requested those who have been or already have drawing him to stop adding that he will not be accepting their drawings because he has nowhere to take them.
He however noted and appreciated their efforts, for the past five years he has received hundreds of portraits from different artists and that some of their prices are getting spoiled because he has nowhere to take them
Before anyone decides to draw me they should ask me first to know if I want one .he also added that if anyone wants his support they should let him know even without drawing him
‘Dear artists (portraits and pencils artists)
First thank you for the amazing job you are doing, more respect to all artists who have taken their time to draw and put my likeness on paper … I now have to request any artist trying to draw me to stop .I will not accept your art because I have nowhere to take it or hang it reason being I have hundreds of them from different artists and the pieces are getting spoiled because I have nowhere to hang them both my house and office are full. It hurts me to see your hard earned work go to waste
- Before you draw me just try and get in touch and ask me if I want a painting
- Don’t ambush me with your work and think I’ll buy or accept it even for free because I have nowhere to take them.
- If you want my support let me know I’ll do that even without you drawing me.
I request that just don’t draw me but bring your work and ill support you
Wengine wanachora mtu sijui. Thank you and God bless.”
