Teak statuette, 'The Northern Drummer'

The drummer plays with an ecstatic expression upon his face, his rhythmic beat a perennial invitation to dance and celebrate. Dressed in the attire of northern Ghana, his image is cast on teak wood with exceptional skill by George Obeng as he uses locally made tools in this hand-carving feat. The drummer's teakwood image is imbued with lively charm and will bring cherished reminiscences to the Africa traveler.
