Extended Tribe – Family Portrait
This is a painting I made as a gift for my sister. She took a weekend break to spend time with the tribe and brought me a pair of quad roller skates (because why wouldn’t you buy your uncoordinated sister who can’t skate a pair of roller skates 🙂 ) which FriBoy loved so much that he drew himself skating with his aunt.
Rainbow over the Netherlands Painting
This is a new painting I made based on a child’s drawing. This time it’s a 4 year old dutch boy who drew a rainbow who inspired me, in turn, to paint a rainbow of textures.
A Christmas Story Painting
This is another painting I did starting from a child’s drawing. It’s the drawing of a 5 year old boy. I love his style, he makes very detailed and delicate drawings.
Journey of Initiation – Little Drummer Boy Painting
This new painting is inspired by the Christmas Carol with the same name, Little Drummer Boy.
The tribe – Family Portrait Painting
FriBoy made this drawing of us for my birthday and I was inspired to paint it like this after I saw an exhibition, The Boomerang Effect at the Ethnographic Museum of Geneva. It’s my favorite place in Switzerland and I wanted to spend my birthday there.
Journey of Initiation – Travel to Burkina Fasso
I made this painting after I finished a bogolan cloth workshop with Burkina Fasso artist Momoudou Bolly.
The Conquest of Paradise
My art is always social. I strongly believe that art is one of the most powerful instruments to address social and political issues and that it should be used as a civic instrument. The aesthetics are important for the human eye but it’s the message that stays with people.
