Percy Maimela (1985) is a self-taught artist born in Pretoria/South Africa in 1985. He is currently working at August House studios in Johannesburg. Maimela discovered his love for art during his early childhood age. In 2014 while working as a sales assistant, Maimela decided to pursue art as his part-time business making portraits for commissions. He then became a full-time practitioner in art in 2016 and was introduced to conceptual and investment art. His preferred media includes charcoal drawing, painting, and traditional art forms, but he also experiments with untraditional medium like salt, maize meal, ashes, and coffee grounds, this technique he discovered during his retail employment. His work inspiration is mostly from issues and conditions surrounding his communities and he strives to inspire and motivate his community through his work.
