About the Item
"Kaya Yei" is an original acrylic painting on canvas by Francis Annan Affotey. Three figures in varying poses stand in the foreground, with an abstracted market scene behind them.
Francis Annan Affotey was born and raised in Accra, Ghana. He paints in a number of styles, some of which could be said to reflect pointillistic, cubistic, or abstract modalities. Often starting with scenes deriving from his native West Africa, Affotey reshapes these observations with modified techniques that re-contextualize the European lineages from which these same techniques have emerged. The landscape, the still-life, and the portrait are just three of the modes Affotey engages.

- "Sunset Over the South Atlantic Shore, Ghana, Africa, " Acrylic on PaperBy Samuel B. KpetenkpleLocated in Milwaukee, WI"Sunset Over the South Atlantic Shore, Ghana, Africa" is an original acrylic painting on paper by Samuel B. Kpetenkple. This piece depicts five figures standing before the whitecap waves of the ocean. 3 1/8" x 4 1/2" art 10 3/4" x 12" frame Artist Statement: "As often said there are some few "indigenous and naturals" who seem to have been born with brushes and pallet knifes in their hands. Nii Kpetenkple Samuel is one of such gifted and talented Artist; Painting to me, is one of the eloquent media for expressing myself about all the corners of the world and all that it holds; Of course it is not by accident, that i went into Painting. Nii Kpetenkple was born and bred in a coastal town, a suburb of Accra called NUNGUA, it's only 10 miles away from Accra. I am now in my late twenties. Nii Kpetenkple, had his training as an Artist at one of the secondary schools in Accra - Ghana. Later I had my tertiary training at Ultimate school of Art, (u.s.a) Ghana. I enjoy sketching, swimming, reading and music that keeps me working always. My childhood experiences with fishermen in their fishing expedition, fish mongers, market women, local houses or structures and meaningful Ghanaian symbols with abstract figures made me one of the expert in that area. As an Artist, art enables me to see nature as eternal, grasp a fragment of the Almighty's plan, even a bit of land scape, few pieces of fruits or a human form. Throughout my period of contemplation and years of uninterrupted close contact with nature, vast truths flashed upon my mental horizon, to which i gave expression in my paintings. I had no doubt that, i had discovored a new realm in the world of painting and would carry on to a fuller completion with what many gurus of the Art industry like Picasso, Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Cezanne, Van gogh, Gauguin, Ablade Grover, Amon Kotei...Category
