About the Item

The drawings showcase the beauty of the black women on one hand and also reflect the intimacy animals possess with females, especially horses, and princesses in royalty. They are much more comfortable, endure hardships, and well behaved with women than men. Shipping Procedure Ships in a well-protected tube This work is unique, not a print or other type of copy. Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (Issued by the Gallery) About Artist Born in 1963. Trained at Zaria Art School with B.A. (Hons) 1990, MFA 1998 and PhD. 2015. He teaches Painting and Drawing at the Department of Fine and Applied Arts, Adeyemi Federal University of Education, Ondo, Nigeria. He does not only engage in teaching and research activities; he is also a studio practicing artist who has participated in over 30 group art exhibitions and 4 solo shows both at local and international levels. He has also executed several commissioned art projects within and outside the country. His conceptual narratives focus on man’s response to his inner being – the unconscious, subconscious, and conscious states (based on theories of Sigmund Freud, 1856 - 1939). The painting series recounts; that what life gives to man is neither limited to what nature makes available to him nor what is obtainable by him. Most times, man does not have total control of what accrues to him. Some unseen forces prevail to make things happen either positively or negatively.
