Peace and love in my dreadlocks Painting

My name is Samuel Oseigyei Kumah. I was born on the 10th of September, 1988. I come from Ketekra-chi in the Oti region but lived and grew in Nima located in Greater Accra. I had both my elementary and junior high education at 37 Military basic school. I got enrolled in Ghanatta college of Arts and Design where I polished my talent as an artist. I discovered my talent at age 8 while in the elementary school but my parents especially my mother disagreed with me choosing to become an artist because she felt it was not a well paying profession. But with grandmother behind me, I managed to pursue it. I worked as an apprentice under three different masters in quest for skills and experience to be able to fit in the job market. In 2012, I started working as a full time versatile artist with the name Big Sam Arts. Due to how beautiful and quality my works are, I have been able to receive certificates and awards both internationally and locally. I am an artist who uses the color blue in my paintings of human figures to bridge the gap between different skin tones. I believe that the color blue is a universal color that can represent all people, regardless of their race or ethnicity. By choosing to paint my figures in blue, I am creating a visual representation of unity and harmony. I hope that my work can help to promote a more inclusive and accepting society. My artworks also aim to solve problems worldwide which includes love, sadness, happiness and preach peace. I am inspired by the challenges that people face around the world, and I want my work to be a force for positive change. I believe that art can be used to raise awareness of important issues, and I hope that my work can help to make a difference in the world. I am also committed to disregarding racism and encouraging oneness. I believe that we are all human beings, and we should treat each other with respect and compassion. I hope that my work can help to create a more just and equitable world.
