You are buying the original signed painting, not a print, and there is one. Photo 2 shows the canvas standing against a wall on its stretcher frame, but the artist ships it rolled in a tube and unframed, so message the seller before ordering if you need it to arrive ready to hang. Photo 3 is a room mockup: the frame, white mount and room are not included. Colours can look slightly different on screen.
Across Ghana a baby is carried on its mother's back, wrapped close in a cloth so the child can rest and her hands stay free for the work of the day. The artist turns that everyday sight into a tribute to motherhood and resilience, painted in one warm tone that keeps it calm and intimate.

An original sepia painting of a mother with her child carried on her back. She is drawn in a few quick dark lines over tall washes of ochre, amber and rust, her head wrapped, the child's round head resting against her, and a crescent and bar pattern running down her wrapper. The artist lists the medium as aciduro, a local watercolour pigment, which gives the piece its single warm tone, closer to an ink drawing than to the bright acrylics elsewhere in the shop. The artist calls it Quiet Strength. Her calm posture is the point: a woman carrying life's responsibilities with grace, strength that is gentle rather than loud. The child against her back stands for trust, continuity and the love and heritage passed from one generation to the next. At 7 by 10 inches it suits a desk, a shelf or a gallery wall of small pieces. It is one of a kind, not a print, signed Lexis in the lower right corner. Painted by hand in Ghana. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from damp.
