FLORENCE BEAL NENAKWE -CONTEMPORARY PAINTER FROM CAMEROUN!!







La Femme Masai




Maman & Moi (niceee)






Abstrach hun..try 2 figure out what it is about.

And she paints, paints , paints away: amazones, musical instruments, people in love w/music, nature, animals...a lot of her paintings have 2 do w/either 1 of these subjects.

Florence was born in Cameroun she spent her childhood in 2 village of





Bangangte-ville, where she was amazed by tradional masks, the colors of nature, the "village scene"-the women and their array of jewelry..ect, ect...






2day as a painter, she still re-lives these happy moments of her childhood through her paintings..when i read the title of 1 her piece and i try to grasp the meaning of it through her pieces ..I am amazed at how she expresses herself...I catch myself smiling...trying 2 see her vision..it's truly amazing how she uses lines, geomatrical figs to draw 1 woman ..anywhoo interesting work..


Here's her webbie:
