“I donated one of my art pieces to a charity for them to auction and make money, and the piece was bought by art collector Danny Weckx, who happens to own an art gallery in Belgium.”

Unlike many talented South Africans, Mlangeni has no desire to leave the Free State to pursue greener pastures in Johannesburg. He says his work is good enough for the city of gold to come find it in the Free State.

His genre may seem unusual for those who don't have the knack for art, but it inspires young artists who are under Mlangeni's mentorship. He says it's a misconception that young people neither understand nor find art interesting. Instead, they lack guidance, platforms to showcase their work and resources to create, he says.
