Tea Lady Painting

A painting by :

Obada Gabir -

This striking ink drawing captures a Sudanese tea lady beneath a makeshift shelter, her figure emerging from bold, expressive linework. Gabir's dynamic strokes create dramatic contrasts between the heavy black shadows of the overhead structure and the delicate details of the woman and her tea service below. The composition pulses with energy through intersecting lines and geometric patterns, while maintaining intimate focus on this everyday scene of hospitality and resilience in urban Sudan.
