In Wake Of Danger Painting

ARTIST STATEMENT I paint to capture the essence of nature and its components in their unique form by arranging colours side by side to form a unified whole; to enjoy the obvious that may be consciously hidden or otherwise. As perceived, light is the key that traverse in my paintings, unveiling the beauty of nature and its components in their various values. The world as represented by people, culture and the environment is beautiful to be a unique subject matter. BIO. Oyedele Abiodun Oyewumi was born in Ogbomoso, Oyo state, Nigeria in 1991.
