‘Enjoy the Simple, Sweet & Natural’

By Janina Nana Yaa

A3 print on 160 gsm, 2026

Original medium marker on paper

‘I enjoy the sweet, natural, pleasures and wealth, abundance and luxuries of life’

Hand lettered print in bold, sun soaked colour! This piece is a love letter to life’s dual richness. The quiet pleasures and blessings of fresh fruit and everyday joy that can be found in the moments we share as a part of Nature alongside Earth.

The multiple ‘ands’ are a reflection of the infinite exchange we have with the Earth.

We are worthy of experiencing wealth, luxury and abundance because we exist. This isn’t something we need to feel guilt or shame for.

A sweet reminder and daily affirmation that all are yours to enjoy.

Two Adinkra symbols are present in this print

Owia Kokoroko - The Greatness of the Sun

An Akan symbol that connects us to the creator Nyame and their warmth. A symbol that reflects vitality and motivation.

Asaase Ye Duru - The Earth is Heavy

An Akan symbol that reminds us of the exchange we have with earth, the earth carries weight and is heavy because it is full of so much. The earth provides us with life through our bodies, food, nature etc. without Earth we don’t exist here.
