African Wood Mask, "God is My Guide"
Symmetrical features are serene beneath Ghana's famed Gye Nyame. Revered throughout the country, this adinkra symbol means "I fear none except God." Godfred France presents a hand carved mask of his own design. "I believe that without God, I can do nothing, and my belief led me to create this mask," he confides.

This is on a wall in my office along side the artists Man of Wisdom mask. They make a great pair and at times I reflect on meaning of the art in my life.
