Signed Impressionist Painting of Fishermen from Ghana, "Fishing Folks I"

Fishing folk gather at the water's edge, setting off in boats to begin the day's work. Ghanaian artist Eric Oko Borketey finds great joy in returning to the fishing spots every day as he observes the fishermen and women hard at work. He paints this composition in the impressionist style, inspired by pointillism, where careful dabs of the paintbrush suggest shape and form.
