Female artiste Akothee has splashed dollars to acquire a portrait of a young Kenyan artist Sheila Sheldon.
The talented 10-year-old had made a painting of Akothee and asked her fans to help her reach out to Akothee.
The ‘Lotto’ hit maker pledged to pay 100,000 Kenyan Shillings for it during a medical camp that was held yesterday.
The artist also got her dream come true after promised to make her foundation the biggest children foundation ever.
Sheilah Sheldone announced that her art for social change is officially open and thanked Akothee for supporting her course.
Sheila shot to fame last year after painting a portrait of President Uhuru Kenyatta and presenting it to him at State House, Nairobi.
Some of her achievements include winning a global award and also having been featured in both local and international media.
She has also sold numerous portraits locally and internationally.
Some of her remarkable paintings include portraits of former US President Barack Obama, rights activist Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela and Oprah Winfrey.
Sheila has also drawn and painted governors Hassan Joho and Salim Mvurya of Mombasa and Kwale counties respectively.
Apart from making portraits, Sheila dreams of becoming a designer and a model when she grows up is already cashing in on her portraits.
