Ncumisa Nongogo
I was born in umtata 1983 and lived there till matric.
 
I had always loved sketching till I got a set of water paints from a neighbour and friend - tried them and since learnt different paint techniques and mediums.
 
I went to Pentech to do Quantity Surveying in 2002, which was second choice to what I really wanted to do which was Architecture.
 
Worked as a junior for a year and gained a lot of experience but still felt it wasn’t what I should be doing.
 
I then worked in a company that makes petrol pumps and studied Interior designing part time at Boston House College School of Design in 2005.
 
I still loved painting and then dreamt of having a company that would be liquid in art and have no boundaries to what form of art it wants to do.
 
Then I started pinkpipe artliving , and had the first exhibition with two other artists at Relish in 2007 while I was working as a Cabin Attendant at SAA.
 
I then had my first solo exhibition (Portraits and things) in Pretoria Hatfield at an Audi dealership in November 2007.
