About The Artwork
This painting is a good response for the times we are in. Inspired by the 1960s Bay Area figurative expressionists, Rothko's Color Field paintings, and Yoruba principles of media manipulation, Sea Calm crosses cultural, racial and historical boundaries. It explores the existential human helplessly in a sea of "nothingness" (an absent present); pensive and in careful contemplation. I adopted the title from the work of Langston Hughes, the great Harlem Renaissance poet: "How still, How strangely still The water is today, It is not good For water To be so still that way." - Langston Hughes I hope that you find moments of serenity and self-reflection in the midst of all of today's chaos.

United States
I use Yoruba principles of art in my work. Some are Ona (the embellishment of form), Ara (creativity), Ere (improvisation), pipe (completeness) and tutu (coolness). I draw inspiration from the work of the 1960s Bay Area figurative expressionists (Diebenkorn, Oliveira, Brown, Wonner, Bischoff, Park etc) as well as Henri Matisse and Mark Rothko.
