This exhibition became a reality with the collaboration of Alliance Francais of Ghana, Kumasi Sector under the auspices of Director of Alliance Francaise in Kumasi, Miss Ingrid Hummel. Please read my statement of purpose (click here to download)..
My digital paintings are not computer generated as characteristic of many digital painters. I handle Adobe Photoshop virtual painting tools on a wide range of subject matter and colour schemes using the computer mouse, with the same prowess as I handle traditional painting applicators. I apply virtual colours to simulate painterly effects that are comparable to any easel or mural painting, in a style I classify as colouristic impressionism. I stylistically love to capture the expressive modes of my 'figures' and the alternating temperature variations characteristic of the tropical Ghanaian environment.
I hope these exhibits inspire you to venture into the rudiments of computer painting and achieve better results than I have exhibited. For more on these digital paintings, visit my virtual gallery.
You can also access my open learning resource materials from my virtual classroom. Click here.
