He drew portraits of himself and newspaper and magazine models one of which was one of late Miss Malawi, Faith Chibale who had appeared in Malawi News on Model of the Week page.

He was later picked to do a Bachelors degree of Education -Languages with Chancellor College of The University of Malawi. This gave him an opportunity to study Fine Art as part of his combination.
