Product details
Mizram Maseko, Sa Artist (1927-1994)
"Maseko began his career as a house painter after completing his studies in Transvaal. He was inspired by artworks in the houses he painted and took up painting designs and pictures on scarves in a small shop. He was discovered by John Mohl, who taught him basic principles and techniques, He read Groenewald's book about leather paintings and tried this medium and in 1972 his work was included in a calendar. This resulted in a period of experiment with staining, painting and embossing imported modelling hide. The result was a series of painting executed on leather, one of which is a man smoking a Xhosa-Style Pipe"
