Portrait of a ¾ adult Grullilemur Integrus Sapiēns bust from behind and staring at us with their own dark green irises whilst wearing a colorful ritual cloak inspired by a Bamileke and Bamum traditional barken cloth, seen in the 1971 A.D. songbook “Rhythmes Bamileke”, and a dark brown capotainy wide rim conic hat that crooketh itself backward and it is intricately decorated with limestone paint. The cloak is decorated with little golden plaques decorated with swart tokens at the shoulder plate's end, whereas the backside is decorated with red circles, a smart and blank checker grid at the bottom, thin alternating yellowred, light grey and swart upright lines, and nigh the neck, there are deep blue patches intricately decorated with tiny white and grey dots and lines. Same with the shoulder plate's top and backside. Lastly, they also hath a dark brown spider silken cloth as ear hanger as intricately decorated with limestone white paint as the outfit's lave, but using an unwhole circle at the top, at the midline a row of smaller circles, a row of dots to our left side, and 3 twains of interlinked circles.

Every bead on this stool was sewn on by hand. Glass beads, cotton, plant fiber, indigo dye. Made by Bamileke artisans in the Bandjoun Kingdom, Cameroon, sometime in the 1800s. The leopard pattern isn't decoration. It marked the stool as royal property.

Señor Y. B. N. M. (Camerún, 1990)​ debe sufrir lo que se podría denominar como Síndrome de Bamileke o bien Síndrome de Tulsa, creo. (?)
Porque lo del Síndrome de Estocolmo se le queda muy muy pequeño.

the definition of style is written out as, "an artwork's distinct combination of form and composition." in the background are photos of a beaded Bamileke elephant mask

People were used to seeing Billy wearing a Homburg or other large brimmed hat.

Few noticed that he always wore a Bamileke tribal woven hat underneath, for which he traded a Stetson to the eponymous tribe's chieftain, whom he met in Cameroon while on a trade mission.

That's the Bamileke.

Portrait of a ¾ sightspot adult Grullilemur Integrus Sapiēns bust from behind and staring at us with their own dark green irises whilst wearing a colorful ritual cloak inspired by a Bamileke and Bamum traditional barken cloth, seen in the 1971 A.D. songbook “Rhythmes Bamileke”, holding a yellow and yellowred feather with a black spot and ring, and a dark brown capotainy wide rim conic hat that crooketh itself backward and it is intricately decorated with limestone paint. The cloak is decorated with little golden plaques decorated with swart tokens at the shoulder plate's end, whereas the backside is decorated with red circles, a smart and blank checker grid at the bottom, thin alternating yellowred, light grey and swart upright lines, and nigh the neck, there are deep blue patches intricately decorated with tiny white and grey dots and lines. Same with the shoulder plate's top and backside. Lastly, they also hath a dark brown spider silken cloth as ear hanger as intricately decorated with limestone white paint as the outfit's lave, but using an unwhole circle at the top, at the midline a row of smaller circles, a row of dots to our left side, and 3 twains of interlinked circles. Wherever there's a gold bit, there is a golden bit for all the gold bits are soothly golden, for Madagascar hath been historically and naturally rich in riverine gold. We can tell this character is a he for he hath dark hair, and the does ever have light hair that cometh in light beige and yellowred, like a Western wooly lemur. The feather he is holding is a litheness (gentility) token (symbol/sign/signal/signature), analogous to the Hindu feather tokenhood (symbolism/iconography). His cloak is also heavily loaded with meaning: the middle blue hues awaken worthying and concentration, the red, the yellowred and the gold awaken warmth, the swart and blank awaken something I know not yet, and the purple may awaken a bit of fear owing to their likeness with their most feared blee: dark blues.

Look at these great beaded works by 5th graders inspired by the Bamileke People of Cameroon who create intricate beaded “Elephant Masks”. A great opportunity to examine symmetry, pattern, color and help develop fine motor skills!
