Celebrating his late mother’s birthday, Prince Tom teamed up with his friend who is also a visual artist, Ronald Kegomoditswe and hosted an exhibition dubbed Ke Dinaledi at Masa Protea Hotel on Saturday.

The event set up was breath taking and a number of visual art lovers came in numbers to witness the pair’s masterpieces. Most of the paintings revealed the beauty of women. Prince Tom also exhibited his childhood memory painting dubbed Memoirs of My Childhood that depicted boys playing with old car tyres.

One of the breath taking paintings on the display was that of an African woman with her Afro hair nicely styled and leteisi (German print) fabric that was attached to the painting. While some people enjoyed viewing the beautiful artworks, sipping on their beverages and enjoying the good RnB and Hip Hop beats, some feasted their eyes on the artists as they did body painting on some young women. Others took pictures with the artists. As art fanatics, many of those that attended the event dressed to make a statement.
