I’m pretty excited with my latest retail therapy purchase and it means one less blank wall in our house. Last weekend I bought this set of contemporary paintings by local artist, B Muskwe. I picked them up from the Botswana Craft Centre in Gaborone. It’s a great local arts and crafts shop and gallery, largely aimed at toursists visiting Botswana.
Botswana is well known for their basket weaving and the centre has an enormous range of baskets. In fact when we were there they had an exhibition of baskets made during a local workshop. The intricate detail woven into these baskets was quite impressive. Unfortunately the baskets are quite expensive so now that I have emptied my bank account to buy these paintings I’ll have to save up again for a basket!
