African Calligraphy by YAW

YAW’s art, African Calligraphy, is a display of the uniquesness of African hair. With boar brush, newsprint, and sumi ink at hand, YAW uses a single, coiled strand to show the idiosyncratic nature of afro-textured hair through each painted piece. After, as humans so often do, YAW finds meaning in each piece as a way to foster a closer connection with nature, God, and the depths of the human spirit.

More than 500 unique and original calligraphy pieces.
