Julian Abd-Rrazaq Ssegujja was born on the 14/02/1986 in Kampala, Uganda. Raised in Nairobi, Kenya alongside other two siblings to a single Mother who was a Teacher and also good at Drawing and Fashion. Started his child hood art through drawing and cartooning that made him the best in class when it came to Art and creativity. Drawing in particular as well as breaking down his toys and transforming them into what he always thought was better.

At a later stage in life, everything changed when his mother passed on and he and the rest of the siblings had to leave Kenya back to Uganda, which he took a while to get used to a new setting. Creatively gifted by nature, he always fascinated his friends both at home and school when it came to ingenuity and creativity.

At an Early age as a teen, going into Music, his Father thought it wise for him undergo apprenticeship training and private printing lessons in Art and Crafts through The Associate Professor Theophilus Mazinga Kalyankolo (Relative, Artist and Lecturer) at Makerere University (2008) His best interest was painting which seemed a

very expensive venture and needed him to self-train and practice after different mentorships in other disciplines not of his choice, but part of the apprenticeship training.

After practical training, he underwent a series of personal development and discipline that included reading and practicing.

I have been using Reading, Researching and Practicing later on teaching Art using technics and approaches that he found interesting and easy to use for practice and perfection since 2011 to 2015.

This enabled him mature in the knowledge of Art regardless of age.
