My name is Richmond Ekow Barnes and I was born and raised in Ghana.
I come from what is considered here in West Africa as a small family.
It’s my mother, my twin sister Rosemond and my little brother Desmond.
My father passed away last year. Fashion is the way I express myself, it’s my art form of choice.
My modelling career started by chance when I went along for a photo shoot with a friend who is a photographer
.
