Buti Treatments

Buti Treatments

Folk figures.
New world tribal.
People in traditional occupations.
In danger of disappearing but for their fierce face paint.
A palette now radiant, now subdued.
Ornamentation immemorial taken several steps further.
Butis fill in, add colour.
A nod to pointillist technique.
Third eye if not third dimension.
Goats, snake charmers, neat rows of bananas, Unending, painstaking detail.
A painter for 21 years admired by Mother Teresa, the Dalai Lama. Bill Clinton.
Now in a remarkable first-ever solo show.
