I'm a Painter, Sculptor, Printmaker, bronze caster and cultural activist. As a multi-media artist; drawing and painting of figures provide the basis of my artistic adventures and career. Since artistic vision revolves around a given society and hence the artist, My thrust as one of the nation's consummate artist remains message, entertainment, and nature driven aesthetics. Specifically, my works are products of my imagination captured in oil colors, acrylic, watercolors, metal foils, glue, resin, bronze etc. The works are influenced by Nigerian masters and African sculptures with themes that center on traditional and contemporary concepts in narrative statements influenced by the environment, politics and humanitarian dispositions.
