ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Mixed Media Collage (Acrylic paint, Canvas, Ink, Digital) on Plywood This portrait began with a graphite drawing on paper to capture the likeness of the person being portrayed. The drawing was then scanned and digitally combined with other elements, including drawn text, printed text, maps etc to create a montage. This digital image was then printed onto plywood, using state-of-the-art technology, resulting in an extremely durable, archival finish. After printing, the work was brought to completion using collage, acrylic paint and ink techniques. The physical collage elements in this work were hand cut, with a scalpel, from painted canvas. Kwame Nkrumah is the greatly admired founding father and former President of Ghana.

Eleanor Turvey
South Africa
Eleanor Turvey launched her career with a series of arresting and powerful collage portraits. What sets her work apart is a unique technique and a continuously evolving practice. "My love of portraiture began as a personal search for truth and guidance. I have studied and portrayed many great leaders and thinkers along my journey and I realised that, in addition to capturing their likeness, I wanted to weave their thoughts and words into the portrait, thereby opening a window into the mind of the person being portrayed. I discovered that collage is the perfect medium for achieving this." Eleanor Turvey lives and works in Cape Town and became a full-time artist in 2012. Her work is in private and corporate collections in the UK, Hong Kong and throughout Africa.
