CROSS TO CROWN
Capturing the
business of the moment on the stillness of a canvas, a typical Ghanaian open
market scene welcomes all those who embrace hard work and untainted success. As
the biblical adage goes "the hand that will not work, the same should not
eat", so does this painting depicts the hustle and bustle of a regular day
at the market. The market women carrying on their heads loads either bought or
to be bought, and the men ready to load and offload items at a fee. It is a
moment of reality, depicting the ups and downs of life, with everyone looking
forward to that day of victory and success and rest. And even if we could not
make it today, we will rest for now, for surely the sun will rise again
tomorrow.
