About The Artwork

The Seven Sunbathers It is a warm and bright day. Warm skies,warm colors, with the sun all out to impact on the landscapes and life under its influence. No doubt this painting is a perfect inspiration from the summer landscape. The Sunbathers gather and parade to catch the sweet, sharp and colorful energy from the super ball of the hot planet. They seem to all focus in one direction with maximum concentration. It is deserving. Across the undulating hills the spiralling effects of the heavy chunks of impasto pigment is clearly defined. Using a palette knife layers upon layers of paint are interwoven to give a unique three dimensional effect. Browns,yellows,reds and a little doze of blue form the color composition. Semi abstract this painting is and it has a masterly perspective effect that draws you in , and keeps the viewer within the painting .It is a magnet with a deep golden section. It can be framed with a thin coffee brown stripe of a border frame to keep in harmony with the color palette. It will be rolled in a tube and a certificate of Authenticity attached at shipment.

PAULO AKIIKI a professional modern, contemporary African Artist Painter. I have a masterly grip on my canvas. My love for Art began when I was still a toddler, scribbling on anything my hands could possibly land on. I registered a strong zeal for this special skill and furthered it when i joined a formal Art School at the prestigious Margaret Trowell School of Industrial and Fine Arts-Makerere University 1994 and graduated 1998 . I pursued various disciplines like Sculpture, Drawing, Ceramics, the History of Art, Graphics, business Studies in relation to Art, but emerged with Painting as my Major. I run UJUZI Art Studios/Gallery which I established and registered in 1999. Studios are currently located on plot 1812 Kisaasi road Bukoto, Kampala, Uganda in East Africa. ‘'I Love and admire the Dutch Master Van Gogh'‘. I am particularly thrilled by his masterly in the way he juxtaposes his pigments to trigger off endless emotions in the eyes of the observer. He mainly uses the Painting technique 'impasto' which simply refers to the application of heavy chunks of paint onto the ground or canvas. In the Impasto technique i register my messages or iconography applying the curly-whirly approach. The technique guides the viewer traversing my canvases from one point to the next and still brings you back creating a continuous movement. I have an extraordinary touch with brush strokes. I blend my sweeping waves of romantic, smooth but rich and harmonizing hues into a well calculated pattern. The rhythm draws you into a golden section of the heart of the painting. Majority of my paintings are on canvas. My art is non-representational, it is semi-abstract, emotional, with a strong iconography, full of energy/with the sun as my signature, modern and contemporary and built with professional materials. Sometimes I do work with traditional subject matter but with a touch of modernity. I LOVE NATURE and the DEPTH AND PERSPECTIVE draws you deep into the inner part of my art. Acrylic and oil on canvas form the main media of my paintings. I use professional art materials that match Internationally accepted standards.
