About Artist Daniel Oguche Junior hails from Kogi State Nigeria, He was born in his mid-90s in the northern part of Nigeria. He is a native of the Igala tribe. He developed his interest in Art at a very young age which saw him playing with pieces of paper and even making sketches at the back of his notes in school. He is a self-taught figurative and portrait artist who developed his skills by exploring mediums like charcoal, acrylic, and oil paint. These mediums help him communicate his ideas, thoughts, and emotions through Art.

The art he creates is deeply influenced by the world around him, drawing inspiration from his immediate environment, as well as life experiences both in the past and the present. What motivates him as an artist is the ability to spark emotions and provoke thoughts through his works, he creates art because he sees it as a form of propagating culture and telling stories of his people. His artistic journey has been an ongoing exploration of self-expression and continuous growth.

He believes so much in his identity because various factors such as personal experiences, beliefs, Values, cultural background, relationships, and individual characteristics play a role in his life as an artist. He incorporates traditional beads in his works showcasing the depth and beauty of the traditions of his people, these traditional beads have symbolic meanings to each culture. The inclusion of yellow/gold and black eyes in his subject's representation serves to bestow a unique identity, as these colors hold immense cultural value in his culture. The vibrant yellow or gold symbolizes hospitality and richness, and the black embodies fertility and the rich mineral resources of the land. Through his art, he explores themes of love, societal issues, struggles, culture, family, and identity that encompasses the diverse aspect of human experiences. He hopes to create a form of dialogue in the minds of his audience through his art.

Lady in Red
By Daniel Oguche Junior
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
The title, "Lady in Red," sets the tone for the artwork, drawing attention to the woman's commanding presence. Red is a color often associated with passion, power, and sensuality, and in this context, it symbolizes the woman's self-assurance and poise. Her choice of attire reflects her unapologetic embrace of femininity and her willingness to stand out with grace and charm. The sophisticated hairstyle of the young woman is a captivating element of the artwork. It showcases the artist's attention to detail and skill in portraying intricate features. The hairstyle's complexity symbolizes the complexity of the woman herself – a multi-faceted individual with dreams, aspirations, and a unique personality that shines through her every glance.

Girl from Gombe
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
Girl from Gombe is an original painting by Abifola Olorunlana. Olorunlana created Girl from Gombe with Acrylic on a 36W by 48H inches primed canvas. The Girl from Gombe is a two-portrait series about a young girl from Gombe who is trying to find balance in her personal life in a society that does not really care much about the mental health of young people. In each portrait, her bodily pose, complemented with fresh-looking green plants and every other element in the painting tells a story about all the good and bad choices that have led her to where she is; the influence of her academics, family, religion, and the friends she surrounds herself with. While she's fighting her insecurities, and facing a dilemma in her career choice, she seems to persevere in living. Whenever I look at my subject and listen to her talk, all I see is a beautiful girl who has fallen prey to what we all refer to as life: Abifola Olorunlana decided to narrate with paint on canvas as a reminder that no matter what the situation is, as long as we are alive our lives can always get better.
