Cubist Portrait Painting, "Pots and Fashion"

Cool shades of blue depict sophisticated women in elegant clothing with a distinctive West African flair. All three women emerge from a cubist-style canvas to carry voluptuous clay jars. "African modeling has taken a height where maidens display their fashionable outfits together with pots," artist Prince Dewodo says. He incorporates a traditional Ghanaian adinkra symbol into the green wrap blouse. With its rotating form, gye nyame means "I fear none except God."
