Mathias Muwonge Kyazze | Master of Glass Art By Margaret Nagawa margaretnagawa Source: Margaret Nagawa Wordpress   Mathias Muwonge Kyazze How did you go about becoming an artist? I was always interested in drawing geography maps and science drawings at primary school.  At home, I was involved in mat weaving and basket making. I started formal art classes in Senior One. Senyondwa Deus was then my best friend. He is now a lecturer at Kyambogo University. He inspired and encouraged me because he was a better drawer. I studied art through high school to attaining a Masters degree.  I am still practicing, and becoming more of an artist.   What are you working on at the moment? I am working on two major stained-glass design projects. One at St. Charles Lwanga Church in Ntinda near UNEB, and another at St. Joseph’s Church, Nansana. Where do you see your art practice in the next five years? It is difficult to predict because it depends so much on the design commissions I receive.

Onabolu consciously went into art of figure drawing and
