Playful School Days
A lively digital painting depicting four African teenage boys—Walidi, Shaufic, Yaz, and Mbappe—in front of a humble rural secondary school, with a large mango tree in the background. Shaufic and Yaz are leaning with confidence against the tree, their charm attracting shy glances from two girls in hijabs who walk past. Meanwhile, Walidi and Mbappe stand behind, nudging each other and laughing heartily. Their school uniforms—white shirts and khaki pants—are slightly disheveled, matching their playful spirit. The scene is warmly lit by the sun, casting a golden glow and soft shadows across the red-dirt ground, capturing the essence of a typical African school day.
