About The Artwork

'The Cassava Peelers', which is a part of a bigger collection called 'Road to Caesar', was inspired by a trip I took to farming villages on the outskirts of Accra, Ghana. I was stunned and fascinated by the work done by a team of women only, as they harvested, transported, peeled and processed acres worth of this staple crop (cassava). As you linger over this piece, and the rest in this collection, I hope you find, as I did, that within these broad and colorful impressionistic brush strokes the desire for validation is the drive that motivates a woman, and the support of fellow women is what makes that one succeed. As a young artist trying to find my footing again after a long hiatus, I found that acrylic paint and cold pressed watercolor paper(140lb) would help me express myself without breaking bank.

With a focus on open-impressionism/fauvism, I make art - so you can escape into a world filled with COLOR and experience joy. Over here in Ghana, West Africa, the ever changing social landscapes are an endless source of inspiration. I am inclined to offer an accurate representation of what is, and references for my work are not staged. Its my way of offering topics for discussion that delves into what currently is (our present state) and why we are the way we are. The larger part of my work involves teaching people the Bible, so I share resources I have with them, in hopes it helps to improve their lives. Over the years, I have seen many benefit from this work. When I get back to my studio, I recreate these precious shared moments with whatever I have available: acrylic, oils, pastels on cardstock or when I can afford it, canvas. You can look forward to seeing more of such, as well as behind the scenes pictures. Think of it as our shared travel diary! Enjoy!
