BoredPanda | Lee Jeffries:

Happy birthday, Gerard Sekoto (SA, 9 December 1913 – 20 March 1993)!
Sekoto was born on a mission station in the Transvaal. In 1938, he won 2nd prize in an art competition. This encouraged him to become a full-time artist. He began painting on brown wrapping paper with poster paint. He moved to District Six and became associated with the ‘New Group’, which included Alexis Preller, who gave him his first tubes of oil paint. Sekoto was recognized for his ability to capture humanity and give dignity to Black South Africans. In 1947, he went to Paris in self-imposed exile. He lived there until his death.
