“Being born in Gabon, Central Africa & living there for 14 years played a big role in my inspiration for arts , my love for animals & my attention for details which reflected directly into my early work. Currently I have 15 years of experience in teaching arts & i own a private art center in Beirut “Nabil Makarem Art Center” where i teach painting and drawing techniques for all ages. A class session includes the academic drawing courses such as portrait, anatomy, perspective in addition to abstract painting . But now my involvement in heading the One Small Town Ras El Matn Gallery & Academy where i live , has altered my life by reminding me how a simple idea can become a reality and IS changing the world. Ras el Matn’s gallery owned by our Members will offer arts to see and buy on the weekends , with extravagant & exclusive arts to be sold monthly on our NFT One Small Town Platform . What's really unique is the way our artists will eternally receive royalties each time the NFT’s are re-sold. Most importantly our One Small Town academy will give all its members including their children complimentary classes in art, singing, musical instruments & more.” In Love & Unity
