Reference Africa - a Continent Revealed About "Fulani Youth" This young man looked so very thoughtful, introspective, probably thinking of things that are still in his future. He's obviously of royal descent, as you can see by the aristocratic nose and full lips, and I thought he asked to be painted, to be seen by posterity. I enjoyed painting him tremendously. And I still think it is one of my favourite paintings too! |

I've been drawing since I was quite young and people encouraged me to go on, which was very good, because young children tend to stop drawing at about 10 years of age. So, after school I did stop drawing/painting and only started again by going for lessons privately a long time afterwards, and eventually ended up going to Ruth Prowse School of Art for refreshment. I went on doing fabric painting professionally and sold quite a few African stuff to overseas buyers through a shop. A few years ago started with oils and eventually tried acrylics, now I do not want to go back to oils, I like painting with acrylics so much. I love faces. I like to paint people too. I also really love colours and to paint realistically. Abstract art, unless it evokes an emotion in me with the use of colour, I don't understand fully - I just like it when any painting 'speaks' to you. So, I guess, realistic art in most forms appeals to me, especially accompanied by bright, vibrant colours - I just love it when a painting 'jumps' out at you! Price Range US$ 61-612 Exhibitions Exhibited at Hogsback "Christmas in July" festival recently and sold some paintings there. Education Matriculated, and studied (later) at Ruth Prowse School of Art.
