The
Artist
Challenges do not hinder his creativity
Kshitizz Baniya is a talented and gifted young man. His intricately-detailed artwork and drawings are admired by everyone who catches a glimpse. At the age of nine, his artistic talent began to bloom at Navjyoti Center, where the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth empower students who have learning challenges and differences. From birth, Kshitizz has dealt with hearing loss, with only 20 percent hearing in one ear. When he first came to Navjyoti Center, it was difficult to connect with him. Through their continued efforts and through drawing, Sisters and staff learned to effectively communicate with him.
