Expressionist Painting of an African Woman from Ghana, "Determination"

Full of determination, an African woman travels to the local well, pots for water slung over her shoulder. Ghanaian artist Seth Selom reflects on the way many African villagers rely on community wells for water, reflecting "When technology fails us, we must remember God still has his own natural way of making man survive." He paints the woman in her surroundings using the expressionist style, capturing the feeling and emotion of the moment.
