Come See Me
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
This painting is emphasizing the situation that encompasses a youthful love story, in a situation whereby your love partner is a shy and timid type when it comes to getting people to be aware of your relationship, most especially their parents. It feels like damn he/she is at the usual spot location as expected but we can't wait to be free to experience the freedom, passion, and excitement that surrounds love scenarios.

Aleppo
Located in Burlingame, CA
'Aleppo' by Willard Dixon, These paintings are generally taken from small black and white newspaper photos from Willard Dixon’s daily reading of the news. He changes the images somewhat by cropping them, taking things out, adding color, etc. But the image is definitely something seen originally by someone else. “I must say”, says Dixon, “I have rather strong feelings about these images myself. I see them at least in part as an homage to the intrepid photographers on the front lines who are telling truth to the world about what’s actually going on out there.”
