Peace lord

Liking this thread took art all throughout junior/senior high school. The latter two paintings remind me of chiaroscuro and the depiction and lightning. Which in and of itself can be seen as symbolic. Like the depth in the last picture as well.

Beautiful pieces.
These are all Kenyan scenes, from the Maasai Savannah to the Lamu sawhili town scenes.
