Acclaimed as the pre-eminent neo-impressionist in his native Ghana, Victor Odoi’s oil paintings evoke the fishing villages and market scenes along the coast of Accra, the capital city.

At Work (II) by Victor-Odoi | Acrylics on Card (50 x 38cm)

Odoi’s world is peopled by strong and energetic fishermen who sail the turbulent seas in search of the daily catch to sell at market where they go to conduct brisk business and to fraternize. It is a world of rough seas and strong blues, reds and yellows as fresh and colourful as the tuna, squid, sea bream and snappers that his fishermen catch.
