A painting from a photograph taken by a friend of mine, Jonathan Bean who has a passion for Ghana and Africa in general. He visited a small village in Ghana many years ago and was adopted by a village there who loved the "eccentric Englishman". Uncle Gweya lived there. I just loved the "lived in" look of his face and asked if I could paint him. Jonathan said he was larger than life so I decided I would paint him that way.
