About

I’m Maureen Jones Nkrumah, a multidisciplinary artist based in Kumasi, Ghana, working across digital illustration, character design, graphic design, and traditional media. My practice is rooted in narrative-driven artwork and the creation of original characters, drawing from contemporary culture and African influences to explore the complexities of the human experience.

Alongside my illustration work, I also develop visual communication materials—from posters and flyers to social media designs—and I enjoy extending my storytelling through frame-by-frame animation, painting, and mixed media. With a background in Integrated Rural Art and Industry, I bring a multidisciplinary mindset to every project, whether I’m creating commissioned pieces or supporting community and youth initiatives through design.
