"Mother and I" ❤️
A tribute to the unbreakable bond between mother and child, inspired by the beauty, strength, and traditions of African culture.
This piece was created on green Manila paper, which was a refreshing challenge for me as an artist accustomed to working on white surfaces.
Exploring a toned background was both exciting and rewarding, pushing me to think differently about highlights, contrast, and atmosphere.
