Yaw Samuel Mensah
Calligraphy and embroidery artist
- 🇬🇭 Accra, Greater Accra, Ghana
- Holy Cross Studio
- Since 1981
- English, Twi
I work mostly in calligraphy, sometimes embroidery. My first show was in 1981 at Holy Cross Studio, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog.
Most of my work is inspired by folk tales I grew up with. I watch every football match going.
More about Yaw
I've had 10 small exhibitions over the years. My favorite was the one with the worst lighting.

What gifts mean to Yaw: I'd put a gift toward a kiln repair. It's been a long time coming.
