  • My name is Ace the Artist, a Zambian visual artist and creative entrepreneur currently based in Zambia. From 2016 to 2022, I lived in China, where I established a successful art business that continues to operate today. My work focuses on creating original artwork while using art as a way to bring people together through creative experiences.

    In 2024, I partnered with TORI-JI Restaurant in Shanghai to launch a series of Sip & Paint events that welcomed people of all skill levels to explore their creativity in a fun and social environment. These events helped build a vibrant community of art enthusiasts and demonstrated the power of art to connect people from different backgrounds.

    I also developed a beginner-friendly painting kit designed to teach anyone how to paint, making art more accessible while encouraging creativity and confidence. Through both my artwork and community-based events, my mission is to inspire, educate, and create meaningful artistic experiences.

    Although I am now based in Zambia, my art business and Sip & Paint community continue to grow in China. Below is a selection of my artwork and highlights from the Sip & Paint events I have organized at TORI-JI Restaurant in Shanghai.

  • Living in a new country can quietly turn into a routine of work and home, class and home. Before you know it, months pass and you’ve met almost no one outside your small circle.

    If you’re in China, don’t let that happen.

    Opportunities here rarely show up through isolation. They come through conversations, shared meals, events, collaborations, introductions, and simply being visible. The people you meet today can open doors you didn’t even know existed tomorrow.

    Go out. Attend that meetup. Join that community. Start the conversation.
    Don’t just survive in China. Build something here.
