More Paintings for June
African Mask
Inspired by my visit to Nigeria in 2006. The colours are particularly chosen for its richness and to further depict the hidden beauty of the land. You are either descendants of the Yoruba or Ibo tribes and my mask is neither but instead its my 'YoruIbo'. Its a marriage of two strong souls inspired by my visit to their local museum.
Works of Art at 'Treasures'.
The painting above is called 'Embrace'- study 2.
An abstract piece created in acrylic paints and multi coloured beads. It illustrates a couple courting in the traditional sense, respecting each others culture and values. By now they know each others thoughts, respect each others feelings and dream of being one in the future. Their love is endless.
