The artwork "For The Roses" by Olaosun Oluwapelumi features a woman holding a single rose flower against a floral pattern background. The piece is a beautiful tribute to the timeless elegance and beauty of nature, and the feminine spirit that it embodies.
The woman in the artwork is depicted with a serene expression, holding the rose delicately between her fingers. The rose is a universal symbol of love, beauty, and grace, and it adds a touch of romanticism to the piece. The floral pattern background further enhances the connection to nature, with its intricate details and vibrant colors.
The artist's use of color in this piece is particularly noteworthy. The soft pink hues and the warm yellow tones create a sense of warmth and intimacy. These colors evoke feelings of tenderness and compassion, qualities often associated with the feminine spirit.
The title of the artwork, "For The Roses," suggests that it is a tribute to the beauty and significance of the rose. It may also symbolize the artist's appreciation for the natural world and the delicate balance between humans and nature.
Olaosun Oluwapelumi described the work thus:
"Ever since I was little, I've watched my parents put their children's comfort ahead of their own.
They forget their own needs and want to provide for my sibling and me. Most time raising children is seen as daunting but they always made it look effortless. It is with many people we all have made sacrifices, at one point in our life for precious results".
Overall, "For The Roses" is a beautiful and thought-provoking artwork that celebrates the enduring beauty and grace of nature, and the feminine spirit. It reminds us of the importance of appreciating and preserving the natural world and the timeless beauty that it offers.

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.

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.
