Odo Akan African Mask Oil on Cotton Batik Collage from Ghana _artisan--novica-artisan-8186 amethyst and crystal quartzGhanaian artist Emmanuel Atiemoh Yeboah designs and creates this beautiful piece of artwork using a variety of media and methods. Yeboah creates the likeness of an African mask on calico cloth, a rustic, unrefined cotton fabric.
