Our manifesto: This is what YEN.com.gh believes in
A Senegalese artist, Bou Bou, has gone viral as he employed a little girl's palms to create an amazing one-of-a-kind piece.
During the painting session, the girl would dip her palms into the colour palette and the artist would do the same thing.
To achieve a creative pattern, the artist would slap at the palms of the girl then apply it on the canvas.
He did this repeatedly until he achieved the portrait he set out on. What makes his work amazing was not only that he carried them out without a brush, but that he painted everything upside down.
