Description
The Heart of Africa has won many First Place awards, because the face of this wonderful Samburu woman from Kenya exemplifies the warmth and love of the African continent and speaks to the viewers soul. This is a mixed media painting, using a Fractal Vision as the background with a portrait of the beautiful African woman in the foreground. The colourful beads of her head piece and necklace sparkle and create wonderful movement around her beautiful face which contrasts beautifully with the Fractal background.
Prints are available through Fine Art America, Fine Art England and Fine Art Germany. They can be on canvas, metal acrylic, framed, gallery wrapped and even available as fine art greeting cards, throw pillows, etc. You can choose from hundreds of frames and mats to create museum-quality masterpieces from any of my artwork.
To purchase a signed and hand-embossed Limited Edition, contact the artist directly from this site. Each one is hand glazed with many layers of acrylic paint and varnish to really bring out the beautiful colors and create a three dimensional effect. Thus, each Master Edition of a fractal vision is a unique work of art and valuable as an investment piece.
