Meet The Artist Behind The Masterpiece
Hand-Carved African Masks and Decor
I was determined to make it and also be able to take care of my siblings. This inspired me to bear all these risks
I see myself more as a designer and a finisher. After serving a while under master Abdul Karim Star, another featured artist, I started to work on my own in 1996. So far l have trained about 11 people as designers and finishers. I currently have three, out of the 11 people I trained working with me. The remaining 8 have started their own workshop.
