FAMOUS ARTIST Daniel Gyekyi Gyan

I am Daniel Gyekyi Gyan, a Ghanaian born in Greater Accra Region, I discovered my talent at a young age and went to the Salem senior high school, Accra to study, i then went to the Ghanatta College of Art and Design to improve upon and polish my talent in art. Today I work in a studio called Gyekyi_D Art Studio.

Each of my characters is masterfully captured with a warmth, honesty and intensity, or raw energy as I bring my subject to life by using Acrylic paint together with modeling paste to create a great impression on the subject matter. I also use a pallet knife to create small small strokes on my subject.

As a seasoned painter I masterfully communicate with the people in my society through my contemporary paintings, my subject matter, sometimes models, culture, children and social life. In my series of works depict African models and models in the diaspora.
