"Self Portrait"

This amazing painting "Self Portrait" is by Samuel Walter Aduboffour.

"Growing up on the mercies of the street in Accra inspired my works..I mostly paint with acrylic paint on canvas , all my work is inspired by what goes on or what I see around me now and from my memories growing up"

Samuel has been painting for about 15 years since taken in to an artists studio off the streets of Accra.

His work is signed "AMWL" (Art Made With Love) and he is currently exhibiting in Accra as well as in his small studio at the Accra Arts Centre where he also helps other emerging artists , some of them will be featured here shortly.

We met on my last trip to Ghana and discussed his life and beautiful art in detail and I told him how much I loved his work and wanted to bring it to Australia one day.

So..... here it is!

Size is 700mm x 440mm an is sold as a rolled canvas ready for stretching or framing.
