Golden color evokes the heat of summer. A lithe young woman bends low to reach a jar of cool water. Drinking deeply of the refreshing liquid, she seems unaware of her beauty and grace. K. Baka signs this elegant batik wall hanging. Artisan Info: Artist K. Baka has been featured in Red Herring magazine. My name is Kwabena Kufuor Afriyie-Addo Jr. (also known as K. Baka). I was born on Tuesday, July 2, 1968 in the eastern region of Ghana. My father is Benjamin Kwabena Kufuor Afriyie-Addo and my mother is Nancy Afriyie-Addo. When I was a child, I used to draw a lot. I was so interested in art that in school it was the subject I got the highest marks for. Actually, it was a gift - a talent. I later entered art college for a three year diploma in art. That was from 1990 to 1993. After graduation, I established my shop in the house. While in school, I was painting and selling, so after school I did not need to undergo any brush-up or polishing. I do paintings, craftwork, billboards, screen-printing and signboards. In 1997, I had 20 students whom I taught painting, batik, and textile making. Presently I have two apprentices.
