I decided to name it Retro Africa since it resembles the style used. The retro style drawings was common back in the 1970s and often symbolised world peace, calmness and funky fashion. I also pray the same for Africa.
In this artwork I have used an actual earring from our Maasai culture. The earring is a symbol of my country and represents Tanzania.
