Gabriel Eklou was born in 1966 in Accra, Ghana, West Africa, but spent most of his childhood in Togo. His schooling took place in Togo, Benin and Ghana. As a trained accountant he worked in the travel industry but, in 1996, he followed his passion and gift and became a full-time painter.

As his art developed he began using larger canvases and found that they gave him the scope he needed to portray his main interests – the symbolic interpretation of community life.

The Lady and the Wind by Eklou 300x276 Original Gabriel Eklou Painting for Auction: The Lady and The Wind

Signed, framed original, acrylics on canvas, 100 x 105cm.

The Lady and the Wind (featured) captures the essence of Gabriel’s light and graceful expressionism. His signature figures, elongated, tapered and elegant, speak a body language that is understood all over the world. With economy, Gabriel conveys the inner energy in an impending gesture. Whether dynamic or in repose, his people reside in a timeless landscape of calm earth tones.

This talented and passionate African artist has kept a steady pace since 1996, exhibiting three or four times a year. His art can be found in corporate and private collections in Ghana, West Africa, Togo, Germany, England, Denmark, Belgium, the USA, Japan and Canada.

    I’ve been an IT consultant for over 15 years. Strange to get paid for doing what you love. May be in danger of being called a geek… but who cares? I actually enjoy every opportunity to drive through the concepts, design, and creative framework on even personal web-based projects. My other passion is travel: 72 cities in 35 countries at the last count.
