Story Behind the Art:

'My full name is Kwabena Kufuor Afriyie-Addo Jr. After graduation from college, I established my studio in the house. I do paintings, craftwork, billboards, screen-printing and signboards. My paintings are natural, and I try to use inexpensive but high-quality material like calico, denim, military camp tents, and heavy curtain cloths. I find they are stronger than canvas. It also makes it possible to sell my works to a larger audience. I use acrylic paint because it dries faster and it lasts longer. I use phone cards for the painting instead of brushes because it gives me the effect that I want.

'For my paintings, many a time I see them in dreams and visions before I actually paint them. So in the morning I organize my materials and start painting.'
