Mama Africa mixed media painting Acrylic

From a photograph taken during a trip to Senegal, this mixed media piece bursts with colour and texture. The work combines resin, banana leaf fibre collage—carefully prepared and layered for depth and natural richness—canvas stretcher, and striking synthetic hair extensions.

Encased in a black American frame (total size: 76.7x56.7 cm) and finished with varnish, the composition draws on the tactile, organic qualities of banana fibre. The vibrant materials and dynamic mixed techniques pay tribute to the diversity and spirit captured in the original scene, making this artwork a distinctive statement piece for any art collection.
