Olaosun OluwapelumiNot A Time To Be Afraid2023
2023
About the Item
In this world of wonder, where life is but a dream,
A time of change, where all things are serene,
Not a moment to fear, but one to embrace,
For in every end, there's a new beginning to grace.
The trees stand tall, their leaves rustling free,
As nature awakens from her winter sleep,
The flowers bloom brightly, their colors so bold,
A symphony of hues that our spirits keep.
The sun shines down upon us, warm and kind,
Bringing light to our lives, leaving behind,
Shadows of doubt, and darkness of night,
Replaced by hope, and a brighter sight.
So let us not be afraid, my dear ones,
For in each season, we find new beginnings,
New chances to grow, to love, to thrive,
And make memories that will forever survive.
Green is a color that represents hope, renewal, and well-being, it evolves powerful emotions, vitality, and peace due to its connection to nature while black evolves strong feelings of anger, sadness, and fear.

Her passion for art has been a lifelong pursuit, and she continues to hone her craft with every piece she creates. Olaosun believes that black is not just a color, but our existence, and she uses black skin in her work to convey this message.
Olaosun Oluwapelumi is a passionate artist dedicated to creating positive change in the world through her art. Her medium of choice is acrylic and oil on canvas, and she spends days working on each piece to ensure that it expresses her emotions and connects with her viewers.
Olaosun draws her inspiration from her life experiences and everything that touches her feelings. She is particularly interested in conveying messages on gender inequality problems, social issues, and African history among other issues connected to black people. Through her art, Olaosun aims to create a connection with her viewers, making them feel the intensity of the story she tells.
The process of researching and working with different materials has brought Olaosun new challenges, and new ideals, which encourage her to continue creating multiple layers in her artwork. Her dedication to self-teaching has allowed her to develop her skills in pencil and painting and has given her the confidence to express herself through her art.
Recently she used Green and Black in her works which symbolize peace and tranquility, as well as hope, harmony, and optimism. Black is a color of many sentiments. It could be associated with grief, mourning, or the occult. Mystery, bleakness, heaviness, depression, rebellion, fear. But it is also significantly associated with the strength and resilience of the African people.
She loves to create through the pains of people around her, to give them hope and let them know that they are not alone.
