Beautiful, she is the "child of the gods" as her name, Donkor, suggests. According to Akan customs, if a woman is unable to conceive, she will pray to the gods for help. When she does finally give birth, it is believed the child is a gift from the gods and is thus named "Donkor." One of the privileges of a Donkor person is to let their hair grow into long locks. K.Baka paints this expressionist portrait of Donkor, complete with facial markings meant to prevent her from dying.

Another piece I just love in my living room. The colors are vibrant and it is large enough to make a statement. Catches everyones eye when they enter the room.
