The heart and soul of Ethiopia captured in fine art paintings and wood sculpture.  In the Mind of a Child
Gidey Gezahey studied art at the Minilik School of Fine Art in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia and later at the Comboni House in Cairo, Egypt.
Having lived in Eritrea for many years, he left unrest there, traveling on foot across the Sudan to Egypt where he settled for a time and continued his pursuit of art. He says that he can only create when his spirit is positive...when that mood changes he rests his brush. Each of his oil paintings are crafted from a place where the spirit and mind commune peacefully, bringing forth imagery that haunts the soul and delights the imagination. _____________________________________________________________________

 Artist Dion Jacob I am Dion Jacob. Born in Trinidad and Tobago, these islands of the Caribbean are where I received the gift of “want.” Wanting, like any noble person, to use my God given talents to make this world a better place. Wanting to know the truth that wisdom has to offer. Wanting to aid in global healing of nations and its children. I am on a mission to portray, through “the arts”, the vast array of resources that we have in our cultures and our traditions. For we are one family and have only one world to share, and when we can enjoy the fact that we all exist for good, then there’ll be no need for war. I also sign my African name "Sendibaba Morathi" on my artwork. I was given this name by a wise man at a naming ceremony on 12/27/2002, known as the day of Kujichagulia, “Self Determination.” It means “wise leader.” There's nothing more to be said through this biography. My art should and always will speak for me. Visit Jacobarts Online ____________________________________________________________________________________ |
