You are buying the original signed painting, not a print, and there is one. It ships rolled in a tube, unstretched and unframed. Photo 1 is the whole painting, photo 2 a close detail of the pot and waist beads, and photo 3 a close up of the signature and brushwork. The small Shot on marks in photos 2 and 3 come from the phone camera and are not on the painting. Colours can look slightly different on screen.
Waist beads are worn by women across West Africa, Ghana included, as adornment and as a quiet marker of womanhood, often hidden under clothing. Here the artist brings them into full view, large and golden, as the brightest note in the painting.

An original acrylic painting of a smiling woman in yellow waist beads. She stands with her head tilted and her eyes half closed, wearing a gold hoop earring, a necklace of dark beads and a string of large pale yellow waist beads slung over a dark wrap, with a pot tucked against her hip under one arm. The artist paints her semi abstract, in loose impressionistic strokes, against tall bands of turquoise, coral, lilac and yellow, and calls the piece Warm Welcome for the open, inviting smile at its centre. It is signed LEXIS at the lower right and measures 22 x 30 inches (about 56 x 76cm), portrait, as given by the artist. There is one, and it is the canvas you see here, sized for a living room, office or bedroom wall. If you prefer earth tones, the artist's African Woman with Pot, Sepia Painting is the same size in browns. Painted by hand in acrylic on canvas. It ships rolled in a tube, unstretched and unframed, so allow for stretching or framing when it arrives. Keep it out of direct sunlight and dust with a soft dry brush.
