Power
Meaning of the painting: With power, one is expected to embody a wide range of attributes and qualities. Foremost among these is leadership, to guide and protect their kingdom. Wisdom is crucial, as they must make wise and just decisions. Charisma and presence are important for commanding respect and loyalty. A sense of duty and responsibility is vital, as they must prioritize the welfare of their subjects. Courage is needed in times of conflict, and diplomacy for peaceful relations. A strong moral compass, empathy, and fairness are key traits to ensure the well-being of the realm.

Artist Bio
Mustapha Marray Conteh
During Covid Snazzy started a new technique borne out of trying to help local mask carvers who were out of business due to travel restrictions. He bought the masks from the carvers and painted them with diverse designs and an array of colours changing the perspective of masks that are usually black or brown.
Snazzy is a self taught visual artist who has been showcasing his art since joining The Barray in 2015. Among his body of work are pencil drawings and portraits, abstract paintings on canvas with vibrant colours and designs using the one line technique. He believes artists should not conform to rules if they want to reach their full potential in creating. He is open to collaboration with other artists.
